"VINTAGE BATHING BEAUTIES" oil, acrylic, spray paint oil stick with photography

2018

About the Item

One of The Hampton's most popular urban Pop artists whose work is collected by Elton John, Rod Stewart, and Alice Cooper among others. He has been call the "Rock and Roll Painter" and "Painter of the Stars of Rock" by the media. Bathing Beauties by Ceravolo combines acrylic and oil paint with oil stick and spray enamel paint over a newly stylized vintage image of Bathing beauties from the 1920's. This work of art plays with the viewer blocking parts of the women, outlining some of their images, making the viewer go back and forth from the two images, Ceravolo has printed the vintage image with archival inks and then proceeded to paint and "Play" with the imagery. Similar in style to a fellow Hampton artist Larry Rivers, that Ceravolo was friends with. The paper size measures 18x42". Framed size approx 25x48" We have included some images of Ceravolo with his celebrity collectors and a vintage story titled "Rock and Roll Painter" which was featured in the Rock magazine CIRCUS. Ceravolo's paintings have received international acclaim for more four decades. His art, came to popular attention when he was commissioned to create six large scale oil on canvas portraits for the lobby of The Palladium Theatre in New York City. In addition to these, his paintings are in many influential corporate and private collections, including: ELTON JOHN, ROD STEWART, HUGH M. HEFNER, DAVID BRENNER, MONIQUE VAN VOOREN, WARNER BROS., RCA RECORDS AND SCHENLEY INDUSTRIES to name a few. Ceravolo's paintings combine abstract and realistic work on the same large scale canvas. Sometimes the abstract work is in the form of Ceravolo's trademark "illusion" which appears to be "floating" in front of the canvas, other times the abstract work is a spontaneous application of paint which adds color and texture and is in perfect compliment to the gray realistic image.
