Yeah, Blue but compared to what….

First of all, I have been talking a lot lately about my UK agents in my notes and commentaries everywhere I am found online (Facebook, Twitter, here in my Blog, and so on). So you may ask, who are BLUE PERIOD.

As I said at some point before, this company is headed by partners Matthew Bremner and Dawid Kotur. They have developed a very professional, yet unorthodox approach to art promotion. They work in a direct and personal fashion with artists, in a manner far from the sometime promiscuous and occasionally harsh environment that is commercial art. They look into the soul of the artists, showing the new face of art as positively creative rather than obscure. Their work as an agency is an example of that, both for their transparency and their willingness to work with artists and their development in the rather complex commercial environment.  

If you want to learn more about them I would like to invite you to read  Matthew and Dawid’s interview by The New Wolf, and where they had the generous idea of featuring some of my paintings: http://www.thenewwolf.co.uk/2011/11/bluef-period/.  Also visit their website at http://www.blueperiod.co.uk.

Now to some more new art.

This is another one of my new paintings from the second semester of 2011 and which have just been uploaded to my website at www.ignacioalperin.com.

It is called ”Compared to what”, a jazzy and movement filled interpretation of the 1969 classic Eugene McDaniels song which today is better know both for a very nice John Legend new version, but mostly for a very funny, often infuriating, little skit on SNL. I hope you enjoy it. And as long as we are here, enjoy the original song…it’s very cool.

Until next time!

A Wolf, some rounds, a hottie, Blue periods and an “A”, all from the second half of 2011

I have kept a little quiet, which does not mean that I have not kept busy.

First of all (this is like an award ceremony) I would like to thank London’s THE NEW WOLF and my UK agents at BLUE PERIOD PLC  (headed by partners Matthew Bremner and Dawid Kotur) for their commitment. An article was published in this very good and up & coming underground art publication on their great work and they had the generous idea of featuring some of my paintings.

For those who have not read the article, I invite you to do so at

http://www.thenewwolf.co.uk/2011/11/blue-period/. I hope you enjoy it.

 

Now to some new art.

This is one of my new paintings from the second semester of 2011 and which have just been uploaded to my website at www.ignacioalperin.com.

It is called “Astor’s Tristezas de un doble A”, a humble and tiny, but powerful,  painting inspired by Piazzolla’s work for bandoneon and the influence Jazz and New York City had in the early life of this tango genius, a man who composed some of the most exciting music of the second half of the XX Century and which I highly recommend to those who don’t know him.

Next, another new piece (also found at www.ignacioalperin.com) from the second half of this year. It is called “Mr. S’s Spring Rounds” and it is a cheerful homage to all those jazzy versions of Igor Stravinsky’s Spring Round Dances, from his great classical masterpiece “The rite of Spring”.

Well, this is all for now. Oh, one more thing before I forget! A big thank you to Franziska San Pedro from Flavor Designs who named me one of the 15 “hottest” male artists. Franziska does not clarify what she means by hot, but either way, I am very honored!!!!! 🙂

The other 14 hotties and Franziska’s website can be found at http://www.flavordesigns.com/2011/11/15-hottest-artists/.

Back soon with more paintings to show.
