Tomasz Rut Hand Signed and Numbered Limited Edition Canvas Giclee:"Prometheia"
Artist: Tomasz Rut
Title: Prometheia
Size: 22" x 24 3/4"
Edition: Unique Artist Proof / Artist Private Collection
Medium: Giclee on Canvas
About the Artist: Named one of the most collectible living artists by Robb Report's Best of the Best, Tomasz Rut continues to expand the realm of contemporary figurative painting to the limits achieved only by the greatest art masters in history. Evoking the passion of Michelangelo, the subtlety of Carravaggio and the flamboyance of Rubens, his artwork resurrects the dormant classical tradition of painting in a XXI century tribute to the perseverance of the human ability and spirit, which transcends the ebbs and flows of modern fashions.
Inherent in all of Tomasz Rut's original oils on canvas, ranging from large scale dramatic allegories to small, sensuous studies, is the artificial patina he adds on surface to create an illusion of an aged fresco and accentuate the timeless subject matter. "By this juxtaposition of spiritual versus physical, I hope to convey the quality that transcends time and suggests the eternal nature of our ethical struggle for survival", says Tomasz, "Hence, beauty and decay, creation and destruction as the woof and warp of my canvases".
