Signed Framed Richard Lindner Limited Edition Pillow and Almost Circle Lithograph
ExcellentA framed lithograph by the famed artist, Richard Lindner that is entitled "Pillow and Almost a Circle," is signed by the artist in pencil, lower right. This piece features one of the "circus women/streetwalker" images that he has become well known for. The lithograph was printed in 1969 and is from an edition of 250.
Painter Richard Lindner's highly idiosyncratic work incorporates elements of his personal history, as well as literary associations. The element of introspection separates his work from pop art. He was born in Hamburg, Germany in 1901 to an American mother and a German father. In 1925, after a brief career as a concert pianist, Lindner entered the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich. Eventually, he became an art director for Knorr & Hirth, a publisher closely associated with the Nazis. There, Lindner met high-ranking Nazis, including Hitler. Though he became a United States citizen in 1948, Lindner considered himself a New Yorker, but not a true American. However, over the course of time, his continental circus women became New York City streetwalkers. New York police uniforms replaced European military uniforms as symbols of authority. Lindner taught at the Pratt Institute from 1952 to 1965. He died in 1978. -
Plate Signed Framed After Rene Magritte Les Enfants Trouves: la Traversee Difficile Lithograph
ExcellentA plate signed lithograph after the famous surrealist René Magritte, which is entitled "Les Enfants Trouvés: la Traversée Difficile." The original was printed in 1968.
René Magritte was born on the 21st November, 1898 in Hainaut, Belgium. His father was a tailor and a merchant, whose failing business caused the family to move often. René lost his mother at the early age of 14, tragically when she committed suicide for unclear reasons. From 1916 through 1918, Magritte studied at the Royal Academy of Arts in Brussels (Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts). He became a wallpaper designer and commercial artist. His early paintings were executed under the influence of the Cubist and Futurist (1918-1920) movements; he was then inspired by the Purists and Fernand Léger. In 1922, Magritte married Georgette Berger, with whom he first became acquainted when he was fifteen years old. After meeting again in 1920, she became his model and then wife. Demonstrating the problems of visual perception and illusionary of images, Magritte used the symbols of mirrors, eyes, windows, stages and curtains and pictures within pictures. Magritte died of cancer at the age of 69 on August 15, 1967 in Brussels. -

Signed Framed Jean Jansem Limited Edition Bullfighter Lithograph
ExcellentA very striking lithograph by Armenian/French artist Jean Jansem (1920 - 1990). The piece, which is entitled "Bullfighter," was printed around 1965 and is signed by the artist in pencil, lower right.
Jean Jansem was born in 1920 in Seuleuze (Asia Minor). He spent his childhood in Salonika, Greece, and arrived in France at the age of 11 where he began painting. He took evening courses in the Montparnasse quarter in Paris. Jansem graduated the school of Arts Dératifs in 1938. He often visited the atelier of "La Grande Chaumière" and exhibited his first oil painting at the "Salon des Indépendants" in 1939. During numerous trips to Greece, Spain, Italy and the French province, he prepared the important themes of his exhibitions. Such themes include the fishermen and the children of Greece, the children, bullfighting and the houses of Spain, the landscapes, processions, markets, city of Venice the Laguna, the masquerade parades, and the carnivals of Italy and the village marketplaces and landscapes of France. Since 1951, Jansem has held exhibitions of his work in France (Paris, Amiens, Nantes, Avignon, Marseille, Nancy, Toulouse, Cannes, Mulhouse, Bayonville, Clermont-Ferrand...) and in other countries (Rome, Palermo, Lausanne, New-York, Chicago, Palm-Beach, London, Brussels, Montréal, Tokyo, Osaka, Beirut, Sao Paolo, Johannesburg, Germany, Art Expo New York and Los Angeles. -
Signed Don Eddy Limited Edition Red Mercedes Lithograph
ExcellentA photo-realistic pop art piece by Don Eddy (American, 1944 - ) entitled "Red Mercedes." This piece was created in 1972 and is from an edition of 300. Don Eddy is widely heralded as one of the greats in realism and this piece combines two of the most popular art forms today: pop and photo-realism.
A realist artist, sometimes called a photo-realist, Don Eddy works in acrylic on canvas as well as in colored pencil on paper. Over the past decade, Eddy has moved from images of toys floating in front of landscapes and majestic architectural interiors within the perimeters of one rectangular canvas to juxtaposing images in triptych and polytych configurations. Underlying his panoply of images from nature and man's interaction there-with is a profound desire to explore (and by so doing achieve a better understanding of) the mysteries of being. The artist's juxtaposition of images is never literal, narrative or didactic, but poetic, infused with his interest in things philosophical and spiritual. Eddy studied at the University of California and the University of Hawaii and has had numerous shows all over the United States. Eddy's work is highly collected as well by some of the largest corporations and governmental agencies. -
Red Grooms Limited Edition Guggenheim Color Lithograph
ExcellentA great example of the New York based artist, Red Grooms (American, 1937 - ). The piece is a lithograph on cartridge paper entitled "Guggenheim" and was printed in 1978.
Red Grooms was born in Nashville, Tennessee in 1937. He studied at the Art Institute of Chicago and the New School for Social Research, New York. In the 1950s Grooms moved to New York City to immerse himself in the art scene. For nearly fifty years Grooms has combined color, vibrancy, and a generous dose of self-deprecating humor to produce art in all media that provokes and delights. He pokes fun at the icons of American politics, entertainment, the art world, while paying homage to his subjects at the same time. No artist since Honoré Daumier has had a greater understanding of humor or a more direct connection to his audience. In return, Grooms has earned the public's unqualified admiration and appreciation. -
Framed Georges Braque After Torero from the Espace Portfolio Lithograph
ExcellentA great example of the modern artwork of Georges Braque, French (1882 - 1963). This piece is a lithograph from the Espace Series of prints entitled "Torero." The lithograph was printed by L'Imprimier Union in Paris in 1957 from the original in 1952, and is therefore considered an after piece; it is not signed by Braque. The portfolio tirage sheet of Espace was signed by Braque and therefore these pieces were all overseen by the artist in ink. Published by Au Vent d'Arles, Paris, 1957.
Georges Braque was born on May 13, 1882, in Argenteuil-sur-Seine, France. He grew up in Le Havre and studied evenings at the local Ecole des Beaux-Arts from about 1897 to 1899. He left for Paris to study under a master decorator to receive his craftsman certificate in 1901. From 1902 to 1904, he painted at the Académie Humbert in Paris, where he met Marie Laurencin and Francis Picabia. By 1906, Braque's work was no longer Impressionist but Fauve in style. After spending the summer of 1906 in Antwerp with Othon Friesz, he showed his Fauve work the following year in the Salon des Indépendants in Paris. His first solo show was at Daniel-Henri Kahnweiler's gallery in 1908. Beginning in 1909, Pablo Picasso and Braque worked together in developing Cubism; by 1911 their styles were extremely similar. In 1912, they started to incorporate collage elements into their paintings and to experiment with the papier collé (pasted paper) technique. Their artistic collaboration lasted until 1914. Braque served in the French army during World War I and was wounded. Upon his recovery in 1917, he began a close friendship with Juan Gris. During the last few years of his life, Braque's ill health prevented him from undertaking further large-scale commissions, but he continued to paint, create lithographs, and design jewelry. He died on August 31, 1963, in Paris. -
Signed Framed Romare Bearden Ltd Ed Autumn of the Rooster Lithograph
ExcellentA piece of artwork by the famed American artist, Romare Bearden, American (1911 - 1988) entitled "Autumn of the Rooster." Romare Bearden is considered to be one of the greatest contributors to the African American art world. It is a framed lithograph created in 1983.
Romare Bearden was born in Charlotte, North Carolina in 1914. Soon after his birth, his family moved to Harlem in New York City. During the mid-1930s, when Bearden was a student of George Grosz at the Art Students League, he founded the "306 Group" for black artists living in Harlem. Romare Bearden was honored during his lifetime and posthumously with numerous prestigious awards, publications and exhibitions. Along with representation in important public and private collections, he was also awarded the National Medal of the Arts and honored with a groundbreaking retrospective exhibition at the National Gallery of Art. A master collagist, Bearden is celebrated today as a preeminent, highly prolific artist of exceptional and multifaceted talents and interests. He was a jazz aficionado, author of scholarly books, a song writer/lyricist as well an arts activist and an engaged humanist. Bearden incorporated into his artwork a rich combination of influences from the art and culture of America, Africa, Asia and Europe and took inspiration from memories and experiences of the rural South, the urban North and the Caribbean. Romare Bearden, painter and collage maker, filled his works with the symbols and myths of the American black experience. -
Signed Framed Cesar Baldaccini Limited Edition Compressed Plastic Lithograph
ExcellentAn exquisite piece of pop art by the great artist, César Baldaccini (French, 1921 - 1998). This piece is entitled "Compressed Plastic" and is a lithograph from an edition of 150 and hand-signed and numbered by the artist.
Baldaccini is considered as perhaps the greatest innovator among modern artists. His work is astonishing in its range, use of varied materials, and originality. César Baldaccini's (1921 - 1998) extraordinary life and career began in the Marseille ghetto of Belle-de-Mai where he and his twin sister were born on January 1, 1921. At age 13 young César left school to work with his father in the wine business. At 15, César's mother encouraged him to enroll in night classes at the local art school, where he rapidly distinguished himself. He soon found himself at the Ecole des Beaus-Arts in Paris. In 1960, he fundamentally altered the course of metal sculpture by inventing the automobile compression. His grand scale human "imprints" represented the first use of plastic as an accepted medium for sculptural expression. In the late 1960's, he again manifested his explosive innovativeness when he first came upon the expressive potentialities of polyurethane frames, which were richly fulfilled in his ebullient expansions. Cesar's expressive junk sculpture, his distinctive crystal sculptures, his plaques (Bas Reliefs) his envahissements (objects covered with plastic or metal), and his successful jewelry compressions further demonstrate his impressive virtuosity and versatility.
