Samuel Saghatelian ( 1961 -
A nice and intriguing work by the Armenian artist
Samuel Saghatelian who is living and working in
the USA. Most of his works are mixed media, some-
times on paper and sometimes on canvas as is the
case here. Dimensions: 80 / 80 cm.
By studying some details of this work the use of pieces
of paper and even wood dust (above) can be discovered.
The surrealistic influence in most of his works is present
here though he seems to return to a more realistic
approach. This artist was an architect at first.
And again layers of paper on this work. It is obvious that
Saghatelian did put a lot of work in this painting and did
this with a meaning. Alas, we weren't able to discover what
exactly was written on the back...
A bit hard to see but that has everything to do with the intense
color blue Saghatelian uses here. Written in red and hardly
detectable something written in black underneath the signature.
For those who want to investigate more. Presented here is the
text on the back. The Schlepper firm was responsible for the
encadrement of this painting: Very professionally done.
Arie Sartani ( 1920 -
At first we were unknown about this work being an
original work by Arie Sartani. However googling on his
name proved this to be another work from his hand though
signed in a different way. Concerning the fact that this
is yiddish art another way of signing can be expected.
This has been signed in hebrew. Work on canvas.
Dimensions: 73,5 / 92,5 cm.
As has been told already this work has been signed in
hebrew opposite to the works he made from Jeruzalem.
Reason for this move could be that he made the Jeruzalem
paintings for the international (and touristic) market.

This painter often worked in an expressionistic style
later in his life. However quality wasn't always there.
Sometimes things are coming "together" in a rather
small work as is the case here to our believe.
Some nice details and thway he worked with pallet
knife is obvious and by using different colours on
it you never know exactly how things will come out.
His signature that is hardly readable if you
do not know what has to be there! Work on
board. Dimensions: 23 / 40 cm.
