Artist: Tomasz RutTitle: Untitled Work No. 0810Medium: PrintImage size: 45" x 27 1/4"Sheet size: 46" x 28 1/4"Condition: ExcellentBiographyThe style Rut developed was that of creating an antiqued, distressed, yet expressionistic look to his oil paintings, through layers of glazes. "I use solvents, rags, sponges, anything that I have to hand. It is almost like an action painting. Comparing myself to Pollock would be far-fetched, but I get that feeling." Those who inspired him include Caravaggio, and Rubens; Neo Classical painters such as Poussin; and Michelangelo, who in his eyes, towers above all others. "I don't reject the Modern Masters. I am not prejudiced against any form of art," he explains. He is a fan of Picasso's. He has also assimilated techniques of the Abstract Expressionists- the somewhat veiled way in which he renders his paintings. The themes that appear in Rut's art are linked by spiritual awareness. Angels are for consolation and assistance; mankind's constant struggle between the forces of good and evil manifests itself through the depiction of horses and wrestlers. The passion of relationships appears in sensual embraces. *Information retrieved from artists website: http://www.tomaszrut.com/pages/bio.html
