PETER LIK (Australia, 1959). "Ocean glow". Photograph. Limited edition, copy 347/950. Framed in methacrylate. Signed and with holographic seal of the artist on the back. Measurements: 65,5 x 99,5 cm. Ocean Glow is a view of Maui, Hawaii, a work that the artist has described as follows: "Immersing myself in the ocean brought me closer to the soul of Mother Nature. Like a surfer, I was glued to the surf report for two weeks waiting for something to happen, waiting for the perfect wave. The colors of the sunrise were the key to this photo: I wanted the kaleidoscope to be reflected in the wave. Finally a swell was predicted. That night I gathered my gear and tried to sleep. This new experience was like my first shoot: I barely slept a wink. When the sun came up, my expectations were high: I knew the photo was there. After hours of Mother Nature beating me in the waves, I shot wave after wave like a madman: it was an addiction." Peter Lik is an Australian photographer known for his images of nature and panoramic landscapes. He hosted the program From the Edge with Peter Lik, which aired for one season on The Weather Channel. Lik was born in Melbourne to Czech parents who emigrated to Australia after World War II. He took his first photo at age 8, when his parents gave him a Kodak Brownie camera for his birthday. In his youth, Lik took his camera on family vacations and photographed country scenes and the ocean. This practice continued on his road trips out of town and into the Australian wilderness, often accompanied by his friend and fellow photographer Michael Plumridge. As a photographer, Lik is self-taught, learning mostly by trial and error. In 1984, Lik made his first trip to the United States, touring the country for a year in an old van. While in Alaska, he was introduced to panoramic cameras and large format photography. Upon his return to Australia, he continued to experiment with the panoramic format. In 1989, Lik returned to the United States and undertook a project to photograph landscapes in all 50 states. He sold some of the photos for use in calendars and postcards. Later, photos from the project were compiled into his 2003 tabletop book, Spirit of America.In the early 1990s, Lik worked for the Queensland (Australia) Department of Tourism, traveling in the Outback and photographing little-known areas. In 1994, he moved to Las Vegas, Nevada, where he opened Lik USA, which includes a workshop for printing and framing his photos. In the mid-1990s, he founded his own publishing company, Lik Publishing. After winning the Art in Nature category of the 2010 Windland Smith Rice International Windland Smith Rice Awards for Best Nature Photography, "Ghost" (taken in Antelope Canyon, Arizona) was selected as part of a May 2011 exhibition of nature photography at the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C.

RAFAEL ZABALETA FUENTES (Quesada, Jaén, 1907 - 1960). "Camposanto", ca. 1953. Oil on canvas adhered to board. Signed in the lower right corner. Bibliography: - GUZMAN, M., Cataloging, number 322, page 529. - GUZMÁN, M., The painting of R. Zabaleta, page 391. Measurements: 34 x 40 cm; 50.5 x 58.5 cm (frame). Rafael Zabaleta was an extremely versatile painter, capable of developing in parallel a post-cubist work in which the image is fragmented evoking colorful stained glass windows and, at the same time, an apparently traditional landscape painting, but in which the avant-garde legacy can be appreciated. To this second group belongs the landscape of the Castilian countryside that we are dealing with. The brushstrokes here are protean: they metamorphose into circles to represent the iridescent tops of the trees, in broken strokes across the fields... The influence of Cézanne also beats in the essentialist and synthetic reduction of nature. "In the foreground, he depicts an almost flat field, covered with grass, enclosed by a wall and with its access gate. Some tiny crosses can be seen dotted, and, immediately behind, the terrain begins to rise until it ends in the fiery mountains that barely allow the sky to be seen. He interprets the mosaic of plots combining the most varied greens with Venetian reds, placing the dark, very fallen, in the last term. The inclination of the planes in the farmland and the orographic features can be distinguished with precision. A sketch with great expressive force, with a clear Fauvist tendency, in which the simplicity and monumental size of its forms stand out", it is stated in the artist's Catalogue Raisonné. Born into a wealthy family, Rafael Zabaleta showed his love for painting since he was a child, so after finishing his high school studies he moved to Madrid and entered, in 1925, the Escuela Superior de Bellas Artes de San Fernando. There he will have as teachers Lainez Alcalá, Cecilio Pla and Ignacio Pinazo, and in 1932 he participates for the first time in a group exhibition, that of the students of San Fernando. One of his works, entitled "La pareja," was selected to illustrate the critical review that Manuel Abril made for the magazine "Blanco y Negro". Three years later Zabaleta made his first trip to Paris, where he met and studied the works of the masters of contemporary painting. In 1937 he was appointed delegate of the National Artistic Treasure, and also around this time he began a series of drawings on the Civil War. At the end of the war he was denounced, and briefly spent time in the concentration camp of Higuera de Calatrava and in Jaen prison, where his two albums of drawings made during the war were seized. Finally freed, in 1940 he settles in Madrid, where he attends the gatherings at the Café Gijón and draws and paints at the Círculo de Bellas Artes. Two years later he visits Aurelio Biosca, director of the Madrid gallery Biosca, with a letter of introduction from the sculptor Manolo Hugué. There he held his first individual exhibition that same year, after being rejected at the National Exhibition of Fine Arts. However, the following year he participates in the First Salón de los Once and becomes a member of the Academia Breve de Crítica de Arte de Eugenio d'Ors, to which Biosca also belonged. Zabaleta will take part in most of his Salones de los Once and anthological exhibitions. In 1945 Zabaleta participates in the group show "Floreros y bodegones" held at the National Museum of Modern Art, while he continues to exhibit individually and collectively in galleries in the capital. In 1947 he holds his first personal exhibition in Barcelona, at the Argos Gallery, and his first monograph is published. Two years later he travels again to Paris, coming into contact with Picasso, Óscar Domínguez, M. Ángeles Ortiz and others. The year of his definitive consecration will be 1951, when he holds a solo exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in Madrid. In 1955 he obtained the UNESCO Prize at the Hispano-American Biennial in Barcelona. That same year he participates in the Biennial of the Mediterranean held in Alexandria, and holds a solo exhibition in Bilbao. During his last years Zabaleta will be an artist already fully recognized, invited to the most important exhibitions and salons both in Spain and in foreign cities of the importance of Paris.
