More about Grace Knowlton:
Grace Knowlton was a painter, sculptor, photographer, and mixed media artist.
Knowlton began her career as a painter, then created the three dimensional spheres for which she first became known. She called the spheres “paintings in the round” and focused on both interior and exterior space as she shaped a variety of media, including clay, concrete, sheet metal, copper, bronze and wicker.
She studied drawing, painting and photography over the years and integrated these mediums into her spheres while branching out to create sculpture, photographs, and mixed media work independent of the spheres. Knowlton’s mixed medium pieces gradually combined elements of drawing, painting, photography, printmaking, and layered computer imagery. She focused on “breaking conventional boundaries to create dialogues in line and form."
Born in Buffalo in 1932, Grace Knowlton attended Milton Academy as a young woman, then Smith College and Columbia University’s Teachers College. Knowlton had numerous solo exhibits throughout the country. Her work is in the permanent collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Brooklyn Museum of Art, and Storm King Art Center.

From an edition of 7 with each work being unique. There is a very slight pinhole to the top corners which will frame out, otherwise in very good condition Unframed Ronnie Cutrone (July 10, 1948 – July 21, 2013) was an American pop artist known for his large-scale paintings of some of America's favorite cartoon characters, such as Felix the Cat, Pink Panther, Woody Woodpecker and No Glove No Love. Cutrone's paintings are colorful, lively, and less challenging than those of his contemporaries. As Andy Warhol's assistant at the Factory atop the Decker Building from 1972 until 1980, Cutrone worked with Warhol on paintings, prints, films, and other concepts, eventually co-opting Warhol's earliest work (pre-1960) as well as works by Roy Lichtenstein and others, until finally distilling those myriad influences into the style a few critics eventually labeled "Post-Pop." He exhibited at the Niveau Gallery in 1979 with a Scottish artist called Mike Gall who showed paintings of Snoopy, Mickey and Minnie mouse, the Pink Panther and also a small series of Peter Rabbit paintings...Category
