Gorgeous original copper leaf painting on bright cobalt blue Nepali Iokta cotton paper made and dyed by hand. Sourced directly from the artist from her sold out 2020 metallic ballet series and never before framed or displayed. Metallic but not glittery. Gorgeous color and light (photos are taken in indirect natural light on a cloudy day without flash). Signed on recto and titled en verso. Under gallery acrylic (shown in penultimate photo). In new copper painted solid wood custom frame showing variations complementing those in the painting but smooth to the touch.
As a painting by hand on paper made by hand, there are inherent imperfections adding to the beauty and uniqueness of the piece. There are fleabites at the corners of the frame, which are common in new frames but not visible from the front, all as pictured.
Thank you for your interest. Please contact me with any questions.
The artist’s statement:
René Romero Schuler is an American painter and sculptor who creates powerful images that speak to the complexities of the human condition and the spirit that connects all human beings.
Feminine figures are a constant in Schuler’s art, which she claims is equal parts self-portraiture and depictions of the range of emotions she has experienced. Her challenging childhood imbues her work with an appreciation for the universal yet essentially intimate struggles and triumphs of human existence. In her quest for a feeling of connection, Schuler speaks to global and societal issues that impact us all.
Schuler’s paintings and sculptures are purposely semi-abstract and textured, rendering them open to interpretation by the viewer. Their power lies in the layers of applied materials scraped, carved and incised by hand and the elusive quality of the figures – wholistically beautiful but symbolic of the scars and flaws that shape individuals.
Currently represented by galleries across the U.S., Canada and Europe, Schuler has had major exhibitions throughout the U.S., Europe and Asia, and has work included in the permanent collections of numerous museums and institutions.
Schuler’s art and selected essays and poetry are collected into published works: René Romero Schuler: Life and Works, 2013; René Romero Schuler, 2016 and René Romero Schuler, 2019, now available in it’s second edition. A fourth book, Ladies, published by G Editions NYC was released in 2024.
