Luna Nueva - Signed lithographic print #100/150

I’ve just acquired two, framed lithographic prints by Columbian artist Guillermo Silva.

If you’re not familiar with Silva’s work, you can read about this international artist here. Guillermo Silva passed on June 27, 2007.

These are lithographic prints and are professionally mounted, matted and framed. “Luna Llena” is print #2/150 and “Luna Nueva” is print #100/150. Both prints are signed by the artist.

The images of the prints are obscurred by reflections of the camera tripod and ambient light in the room.  These prints have to be seen in person to appreciate the detail and bright colors of the work.  

The prints are being offered for sale at $995 each and can be viewed during regular business hours or by appointment at Grezzo Gallery.

Luna Llena - Signed lithographic print #2/150

I have just acquired two Dean Warnholtz signed, limited edition lithographic prints: “Knight” (detail pictured), 1966 (#7 in an edition of 16 total) and “Verbena,” a more recent lithograph from 1978, #6 in an edition of 10 total prints. Check out the Gallery section to see the entire print. The prints came to me framed. I’ve opened the frame packages and remounted one of the prints (the other was fine) with conservation mounting board and added conservation glazing to both frame packages. The frame sizes are approximately 34″ x 24″ (Knight) and 34″ x 27″ (Verbena.) The photos I took today have a lot of background reflection in them, so come into Grezzo Gallery to see these beautiful prints in person.

Dean Warnholtz was born in Sioux City, Iowa and earned his B.A. and M.F.A. degrees at the State University of Iowa. He came to Carleton College in Northfield, MN in 1949 and was a popular member of the faculty for 33 years. An accomplished artist in several mediums, Warnholtz won numerous prizes and purchase awards for his paintings. He participated in many one-man and group exhibitions at the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, the Sioux City Art Center, the Schlier Gallery in Denver, the Otis Art Institute in Los Angeles, and at Carleton and other institutions in the Midwest. On sabbatical leave from Carleton during the 1955-56 academic year, Warnholtz spent several months in Mexico, where he studied lithography at the San Miguel de Allende Instituto, and in Sioux City, where he was commissioned to paint a mural for the Third Presbyterian Church. He studied at the Hayter Atelier in Paris in 1975. He also studied traditional woodblock printing techniques in Japan and created a series of murals honoring the scientific contributions of Carleton’s President Emeritus Lawrence M. Gould.

Wendell Arneson has been on the faculty at St. Olaf College since 1978, specializing in painting (oil, acrylic, and watercolor), drawing, and color design. Additional information about Wendell Arneson’s work at St. Olaf can be found here.

Wendell Arneson’s work has been exhibited locally and regionally for many years. His work and additional information can be seen at Groveland Gallery in Minneapolis.

White lines seen in the photos are reflections and not in the original work.

“Undisturbed” by Wendell Arneson is available for purchase at Grezzo Gallery. The price is $795.

This original framed print is offered for sale at Grezzo Gallery — price is $595, which includes the original wood block carved to make this print.

Please note: My camera tripod is reflected in the glass in the photos and the lines are not a part of the print.

Martin Ocana is a Spanish painter and this work, a cityscape, was produced in 1971. The painting measures 21 1/2″ x 18″ and is framed in wood with a antique, gilded finish. The painting is in fine shape, the colors are good and the canvas is tight. The antique, gilded frame is somewhat worn but structurally sound.

This painting is offered for sale at Grezzo Gallery for $275.
