Benjamin G. BennoA Bird of Sea and Land, Abstract Gouache Painting by Benjamin Benno1938
1938
About the Item
An original cubist gouache painting by American artist Benjamin Benno. This surreal teal composition does little to resemble anything from its title, instead leaning more towards looking perhaps like a distorted person or tree. As is common with many of Benno's works, the painting centers on a blue pallet and cubist construction of form.

- Constellations, Modern Painting by David Smith 1963By David SmithLocated in Long Island City, NYFor David Smith, America's greatest sculptor of the twentieth century, there is little difference between drawing, painting, and sculpture. He easily moved from one medium to the next and indeed one subject to the next, such that a drawing could be a unique object in its own right or a sculpture could in turn be an inspiration for a drawing. Smith was an artist of the outdoors; his work bears the mark of his surroundings. Black lines on white paper can suggest natural elements like sticks in a snow-covered field, or even less empirical and rather conceptual renderings of his sculpture imagined within the same snow-covered field. This oil on canvas painting is signed with the Greek letters "Delta Sigma...Category

- Abstract Work on Paper Mid-Century Modernism Greek American Gouache DrawingBy Jean XceronLocated in New York, NYAbstract Work on Paper Mid-Century Modernism Greek American Gouache Drawing. A modernist artist who emigrated to America from Greece in 1904, when he was fourteen years old, Jean Xceron is described as having a reputation as an artist that has mysteriously fallen into obscurity---especially since he was reportedly quite prominent during his lifetime. However, a partial explanation of that omission is the fact that many of his papers and early records have been lost. He was a painter of biomorphic abstractions and did collages, which were influenced by Dadaism. Xceron was active in New York City when modernism was gaining influence. Of him during this period, it was written that his artistic role was "a vital link between what is commonly termed as the first-generation (the Stieglitz group, the Synchromists, etc.) and second-generation, the American Abstract Artists, the Transcendental Painting...Category
