About the Item
Portofino Evening is a serigraph on paper, image size 27 x 36 inches, signed ‘Kerry Hallam’ lower right and numbered lower left. From the edition of 500, numbered 171/ 175 (there were also 25 APs, 150 Roman, and 150 on canvas). Framed in a classic, gold-tone moulding.
Portofino Evening captures the timeless beauty of land meeting sea along the twilit coast of the Italian Riviera. The Mediterranean at sunset offers up a dazzling array of pinks, lavenders and magentas as boats are moored for the day, and the sun retreats behind distant mountains.
With his bold palette, Hallam brings to life the picturesque mountainside of the Italian Riviera with its traditional, white-stucco buildings and inviting waters now bathed in sunset’s palette. More commonly known as "twilight," Portofino Evening captures the beginning of those nocturnal hours, when we pause for a moment of reflection upon our day's activities, and ponder the excitement of the nighttime ahead. We have been to this place, shared this magical time of day, perhaps sipping an aperitif at this outdoor cafe - the smell of oregano wafting through the air.

Kerry Hallam
Kerry Hallam was as refreshing and spirited as his paintings - creating enticing images through bold palettes and captivating compositions. Born in Northern England in 1937, Hallam showed early artistic talent when he won a six-year scholarship to London University's Central College of Art. After a formal art education under British master painters Leslie Cole, Patrick Heron, and Hans Tisdale, he completed his military service in the prestigious Gurkha brigade in Hong Kong and Malaya. Hallam's talent was further acknowledged when he was selected for inclusion in Britain's Royal Society of Artists in Watercolour. Enthusiasm for his art is fully evident in Hallam’s vivid, windswept seascapes and timeless, sun-dappled village scenes. Strongly inspired by the Fauves, Hallam had a strong affinity for the 19th century French Post-Impressionists - Cezanne and Van Gogh. In the late 1960s and early 1970s, his artistic career was augmented by five years as a musical performer, playing with musicians such as James Taylor and Linda Rondstat. In 1996, a collection of original songs by Kerry Hallam was released on the compact disk, Autumn Harvest. In 1973 Kerry moved state-side, settled in New England, and completely dedicated himself to painting. He later established his first studio in Boston, and in 1981 opened a studio and gallery on Nantucket Island. From that point on, he lived and painted in many parts of the United States, but ultimately New England became his permanent home. Also keenly inspired by St. Tropez and the French Riviera, Hallam returned frequently to those locales to renew his spirit. Noted for his power to evoke emotion, an opulence of light and distinctive color harmonies, Hallam excelled at translating the ordinary moment into the magical, inviting us to be revitalized by the world's simple pleasures. His panoramas drew many accolades, including a first-place award by the prestigious L’Association Pour le Promotion Artistique Francais. His work is found in col¬lections world¬wide, including those of Brigitte Bardot, Bjorn Borg, Lindsay Davenport, the Marchioness of Queensbury, Lady Caroline Townsend, and the Virginia Heart Institute. Through innumerable one-man shows, Kerry Hallam was honored by galleries around the world having shown at exhibitions in Paris, London, Tokyo, New York, Beverly Hills, Hong Kong, San Francisco, and many other cities. His work has been featured in countless newspaper and magazine articles as well as in PBS television specials. Visual compilations of the artist’s works are currently available in the monographs, Kerry Hallam, Far Horizons: A Celebration of Life, and Kerry Hallam, Artistic Visions.

- Dragons (Sacred Places)Located in Greenwich, CTDragons is a serigraph on paper with an image size 13 x 13 inches, signed 'Ricker' lower right and annotated lower left. Framed in a contemporary gold-tone frame. Numbered 29/200, from the edition of 500 (there were also 50 Roman on paper, 200 Arabic on canvas and 50 Roman on canvas). Framed in a contemporary silver-tone moulding. Ricker created four stunning images for a suite titled ‘Sacred Places’ – all powerful images of earthly splendor. The vistas he paints, almost desolate in a primeval way, are a chorus of voices that sing of the glory of nature. In a style which he calls ‘Epic Visionary,’ he presents a view that is at once new and fresh and yet as deep-rooted and enduring as the pristine landscapes themselves. In the images of ‘Sacred Places,’ Ricker’s harmonious layering and blending of colors, muted blues and greens, contrast with the jutting precipices and craggy outcrops of rock that punctuate each portrait. The effects of the elements are visible and beautiful, creating carved layers in the rock and earth, and weaving a ribbon of shimmering water as a central feature in each work. “…these places…are sacred places – they are sacred because their beauty is so deep and mysterious that we are stopped in our tracks…for the moment, we can’t imagine anything better on earth or in heaven.” – Bruce...Category
