Description: Leonardo Nierman ARABESQUE III Etching with Aquatint on paper signed #135/150. In music which is a major influence in Nierman's paintings, the term arabesque refers to a highly ornamental melody whose free unfolding expresses a slowing of time within the composition. Unlike the straight line, which is the most direct path from A to B, the curving movement of the arabesque creates an effect of circular phrases that conjure perpetual melodies. The art piece is in an acrylic frame which measures 27.5 in x 21 in x 1.25 in and in good condition. The frame has some minor scratches on it which would be expected due to its age. The scratches are barely visible, see photos. The artwork itself is in great condition with no stains, tears or folds, see photos. Comes from a smoke free home. Artist Bio from Wikipedia: Leonardo Nierman (born November 1, 1932) full name Leonardo Nierman Mendelejis, is a Mexican artist mostly known for his paintings and sculptures. He at first wanted to be a violinist, but gave it up after twenty years when he compared a recording of his playing with that of Yehudi Menuhim. However, his musical training has been a major influence on his paintings and sculptures, reproducing movement and harmony as Nierman sees similarities between the two disciplines. Nierman has had exhibitions in Mexico and abroad and over sixty recognitions of his work, half of which are from outside Mexico. His work is abstract but still with discernible images from nature such as birds, water, lightning and more. His paintings are in pure colors while his sculptures are generally of metal, often silver-toned. Today the artist's works are in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art in Mexico City, the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, the Detroit Institute of the Arts, and the Indianapolis Museum of Art, among others. Nierman lives and works in Mexico City, Mexico.
