More Inspiration In Venice



  I always feel fortunate to have the opportunity and pleasure to see and absorb some of my favorite works by Italian artists. In this car, three were on display this year at Ca' Pesaro in Venice a few weeks ago.


Artist: Afro



Artist: Vedova



Artist: Morandi



  Another wonderful exhibition in Venice featured one of the greats, Arshile Gorky, also at Ca' Pesaro.






























  Gorky successfully managed to do what all serious artists want to do. He developed his own language.










  He used shapes and line combinations that had not been seen in painting yet. 
  His work helped influence many of the most well known Abstract Expressionists.












  It was a good sized show, and very thought provoking as well as inspiring.
  I never know what to expect when we visit Venice. This was a nice surprise.
