Categories Paintings under $5,000 Pop Art

Mixed technique that blends research, culture, painting. The study was done with recycled materials, combined with PopArt where the modern cut of the mosaic intersects with the embossed materials, creating the effect of the 3D painting. The lollipop (also called lollipop) is a confectionery product intended mainly for children. It consists of a candy of various flavors, usually circular or flat but sometimes of different shapes, placed on a wooden or plastic stick. To find out who invented the lollipop we have to take the time machine and point the rudder to the stone age: here the primitives collected honey with a wooden stick and licked it directly from there. It is likely that the idea of a confectionery product placed on a stick is very old and has been reinvented several times in history. Some trace the lollipop to the early 19th century, others to the American Civil War. The modern lollipop was invented by George Smith in 1908 and registered in 1931 under the English name of lollipop, a name taken from a horse race, the Lolly pop. And here we are, remembering our childhood and always remaining children👶, with the game and the carefree nature of that time. Even today I am a child (a little grown up !!!!) and I love to taste these delicacies, which remind me of my childhood memories. The very bright colors, combined with recycled materials, give a real three-dimensionality.

About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

Acrylic

Paint using traditional pigments mixed with synthetic resins.

Painting Pastel

Pastel is an instrument widely used in plastic arts. Taking the form of a colored plastic stick, it is composed of pigments, a filler (chalk or plaster) and a binder (gum arabic, oil, wax). We mainly distinguish fatty pastels (oil or wax), dry pastels, whether soft or hard. Invented in Europe at the end of the 15th century, this tool was very quickly used by great portrait painters of French royalty, such as Charles Le Brun, Rosalba Carriera, Jean Siméon Chardin or Maurice Quentin de La Tour, who will be considered the "Prince of pastellists", thanks to a method of fixation of which only he knew the secret.

Pastel

Drawing made with a colored stick. It consists of pigments, a charge and a binder. A distinction is made between dry pastels (soft or hard) and fatty pastels (oil or wax).

Pigments

Paint made with colored powder suspended in a liquid binder to obtain some paint or ink.

Cement

Sculpture technique using an artificial material obtained by grinding and baking a mixture of limestone and clay.

Mosaic

Sculpture technique using fragments of stone, colored stones, enamel, glass, or even ceramic, assembled with putty or plaster, to form patterns or figures.

Plastic

Sculpture technique using plastic, a petroleum product that can be molded or modelled.

Collages

Collage is an artistic creation technique that consists of making a plastic creation by combining elements of various kinds: more or less flat materials, such as printed oilcloth, painting or drawing, newspaper extracts with text and photos, paper paintings, documents, various objects of low relief, etc. When the creation incorporates elements in relief, one can also speak of assemblage. This also includes glued papers, which employ a variety of papers, including newspaper, and drawing techniques.

Resin

Sculpture technique using a polymer product (natural, artificial or synthetic) to make a sculpture.

Marker

Drawing made using a large felt with its own ink source. The ink may or may not be indelible.

Enamel

Paint made with molten glass powder and oxide. The enamels are then applied by mixing them with distilled water. There is a form of vitrifiable enamel which consist of mixing the oxides with very little glass and oil until a paste is obtained. They are then applied as a painting.

Technic Painting

Painting is an art form of painting on a surface by aesthetically applying colored fluids. Painters represent a very personal expression on supports such as paper, rock, canvas, wood, bark, glass, concrete and many other substrates. Work of representation or invention, painting can be naturalistic and figurative, or abstract. It can have narrative, descriptive, symbolic, spiritual, or philosophical content.

Carla Bertoli

Italy

Mixed technique blending research, culture, painting and a modern type of mosaic. Carla Bertoli converts the usage of recycable materials into an artistic form, uses recycled elements with the mosaic technique and transforms them into pictorial and volumetric pieces that compose the parts of the support in 3D.

Carla Bertoli was born in August 1963 in Milan, where she still lives and works. During her childhood she gets in touch with artisanal ability through her grandfather, a skilled wood carver, and her father, a goldsmith and artist who exhibited his creations for the Milan company Cusi at the New York Moma in the years 1950 to 55.
This closeness to artistic techniques alongside the interest in arts as a privileged channel of expression leads her to study the ancient technique of mosaic: 1994 through 2000 she attends several courses in mosaics. In 2002 she attends the studio of Paolo Maimonte, teacher at the Milan Castello Sforzesco School of Applied Arts, where she expands the historic knowledge of the technique from the Byzantine age to today, the study of chromatic relations and of materials.
A different interest, connected to the vibration properties of crystals and the chromatic properties of semiprecious stones, imprints her first creations.

The educational path of the artist feeds on rich encounters: she attends the cultural gatherings of Maria Teresa Isenburg, aka Maté, who introduces her to the use of materials taken from everyday life that, fragmented, assume an artistic function; in parallel, she strengthens her interest in pictorial expression by attending the Free Academy of Painting led by Vittorio Viviani in 2008/2009.

These are the years when Carla Bertoli identifies the reference of her artistic research: portraying famous people and clients, recalling chromatic contrasts typical of Pop Art, enhanced with refined framing angles.
Starting 2007, the quest widens: the pictorial language bonds with the mosaic technique that, beyond an even more skilled execution, becomes a terrain for experimentation. Carla transforms recycled elements into mosaic material, into pictorial and volumetric pieces composing parts of the support.

In 2012 she achieves the Certificate of Completion of the Abramovich Method.
In 2013 she starts a parallel path, evolving her artistic capacities, immersing in abstract art. This allows her to try new painting techniques and new chromatic effects, pushing beyond the boundaries imposed by shapes.
