MAKING FACES
Stephanie Vovas re-creates a 1970s Californian glow on a photo shoot in Los Angeles
CO N TEM PO R ARY PO RTR A I TURE
From Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa to Vermeer’s Girl with a Pearl Earring, some of the most iconic artworks of all time are portraits. Contemporary artists continue this captivating tradition, pushing the genre in new and exciting directions.

Stephanie Vovas
“Stephanie’s photographs are evocative of a glamorous 1970s California culture. I am enamored by her goldenhued portraits featuring women with big hair and smoldering eyes.”
3
LOS ANGELES , CALIFORN IA
Stephanie Vovas’ favorite thing is taking pictures of people. Heavily influenced by 1970s culture, her heroes include Helmut Newton and Andy Warhol, both well known for their portraits. Transformation, glamour, and uncertainty are themes she explores in her photographs, which she approaches as if she were making a movie. Period locations, the California light, interior design and clothes all come into play in Bardotesque portraits of her muse Diora Baird. Stephanie recently shot a 10-page feature for Playboy – “a dream job” – and has won numerous awards, including American Photography 29, 31, Prix de la Photographie Paris, the International Photography Awards, and PDN’s Faces. Her photographs are held in many private collections and have been exhibited in several solo and group shows.

Christian Hetzel

Acrylic on canvas 39.4 x 78.7 in
ESSLINGEN, GERMANY
$11,500
Christian Hetzel’s minimalist paintings reflect his “less is more” approach to life. Inspired by the monochrome paintings of Robert Ryman and by Rothko’s profound exploration of color, Hetzel works with composition, color and texture to create paintings that are the antithesis to the image overload of the 21st century. His abstract works, with their timeless quality, are rooted in an awareness of the natural world and in particular a deep desire to capture a sense of light through paint. Each of Christian’s paintings is an invitation to the viewer to become part of what he describes as “a perpetual challenge to create something new”. Christian’s paintings are in many private collections in the US, UK, Germany, Italy, France, Singapore, Taiwan, Russia, and Switzerland. You can also see his work in the Chanel boutique in Frankfurt, Germany, as part of a selection made by Peter Marino, architect to Andy Warhol, Yves Saint Laurent and luxury boutiques all over the world.

Kelly Puissegur

Acrylic, gouache and watercolor on wood 16 x 20 in $2,600
LOS ANGELES , CALIFORN IA
When she was in art school Kelly Puissegur made “serious” abstract sculptures and paintings that she thought her professors would like. It took a while after finishing college for her to feel comfortable enough to start making works that expressed who she was – and they couldn’t be more different. Figurative, narrative and hilarious, her paintings with their quirky depictions of people and animals are inspired by movies, music, books and snippets of conversation that she overhears in everyday life.

Her wonderfully playful works are much in demand, rarely remaining for sale for long. You can read more about Kelly’s work and take a peek inside her studio on Canvas, Saatchi Art’s magazine.

Hormazd Narielwalla

LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM
Growing up in India, Hormazd Narielwalla was from an early age drawn to the world of fashion, buying back issues of fashion magazines for a rupee each. This passion and meeting a Savile Row tailor led him to start working with bespoke tailoring patterns, transforming them into geometric collages. He has also worked with 1970s luxury lingerie patterns, British Raj uniforms, and Winston Churchill’s own suit patterns. Hormazd’s abstract collages have been receiving critical and commercial acclaim ever since his debut solo show with Paul Smith in London in 2009. In 2015 he had his first museum show at the Museum of Fashion in Bath, UK. He has exhibited in London, Melbourne, Stockholm, Athens, New York and New Delhi, and his works are in numerous private and public collections, including the Courtauld Institute and the British Library, London.

K E N T, U N I T E D K I N G D O M
Inspired by the English countryside, Sandy Dooley creates “in-the-moment” landscape paintings in an Impressionist style. Whether she is painting on an easel in a field or dripping paint on a canvas on her studio floor, she is driven by a desire to capture the vibrancy and and harmonious balance of the natural world around her. Color and texture are key elements in achieving this, as is her seemingly effortless ability to evoke the play of light and shadow on the landscapes she depicts. Sandy studied at Central St Martin’s School of Art in London, and has sold her works to corporate and private collections in the UK, Europe, Australia and the US. She has also made commissions for many clients so if you would like her to paint a landscape that is special to you please contact us at curator@saatchiart.com.
