XX Century

About the Item

Born in London to Scottish parents, Peter Howson (b. 1958) has spent much of his life in Scotland and attended the Glasgow School of Art, receiving tutelage from Sandy Moffat. Religious themes run throughout Howson’s work, especially linked to his conversion to Christianity and treatment for addiction in 2000. In fact, Howson’s very first painting at the age of six was of the crucifixion. He never shied away from depicting pain within his art; he was the official British war artist in 1993 during the Bosnian War. He also created a British postage stamp in 1999, in addition to creating album art for multiple bands. Now, Howson’s artworks reside in many collections around the world, including the Hunterian Art Gallery, Guildhall Gallery, National Galleries of Scotland, and Fitzwilliam Museum.

    Urbex is the English acronym for urban exploration and is an activity that consists of searching for and locating abandoned infrastructure with the goal of visiting, photographing and conveying its contents, with particular involvement of methodologies from geography, anthropology, sociology to cultural studies. Her works have been in the past approached to the works of Anselm Kiefer (b. 1945) and Giovanni Battista Piranesi (1720-1770), but in Gullotta's paintings the absence of color makes the spaces particularly ethereal, allowing them to be ideally lifted to new places and to new life. An artist of international caliber who has decided to entrust her return to her homeland to Almach Art Gallery in Milan, while maintaining connections with important galleries, such as Marlborough Fine Art in London and Galerie Koch in Hanover. The artwork represents the famous Velasca Tower in Milan. This artwork was exhibited during the Daniela Gullotta...
