Story / Additional Info From the artist: "In late June 2021, I was invited to a dinner at the Cannotieri di Firenze, right under the Ponte Vecchio. The Sun was setting and it was a beautiful evening. Soon the Pole Dancers from "La Compagnia Colonna" began their show and it was mesmerising! I took many photos of this suggestive grouping of highly trained athletes and came up with the subject of this painting. While I was painting the canvas I came up with a theme, which is "Ascension", the lowest dancer on the pole is "Terra" (the Earth), she is spinning into existence with the light behind her as the Sun. The next dancer is "Acqua" (Water) as she rises up out of the Arno river and sees the sunset for the first time, it represents life coming out of the waters. The next dancer is "Società " (Society) which represents who we are today in the world which is represented by the bridge and the golden outfit worn by the dancer. Finally we have "Lo Spirito" (Spirit) which has transcended life on this plane of reality and ascended."

Matthew Bates - United States
Art Brokerage: Matthew Bates American Artist: b. 1970. Matthew Bates was born into an artistic family in Washington, DC in 1970. Painting has always been a part of the family life, Matthew's grandmother Constance Wigglesworth Holden an accomplished painter from Cambridge, MA studied with Fernand Léger in his Paris Studio. Matthew's Father Stephen Bates is an abstract painter and professional clarinet player at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC whose director is Placido Domingo. Since Matthew was immersed in the arts at home it was natural that Matthew took an interest in painting. His first art teacher was Percy Martin at the Sidwell Friends School where Matthew graduated with the honor of the school art award. Mr. Martin had a relaxed approach to teaching preferring to let his students experiment with several different mediums from printmaking to painting in all styles and mediums and drawing. What was important was that you worked hard, and Matthew took that to heart, spending all of his free time in the art studio. In 1988 Matthew moved out to San Francisco to study art at the Academy of Art College. The first two years were formidable and he learned everything from design techniques, to manipulation of color, to the anatomy of the human body, and most of all drawing. Listings wanted.
