About the Item
Keith McIntyre (Scottish, b. 1959)
Deception, 1996
Oil on canvas
30 x 28 inches
Signed and dated lower right
Scottish Artist Keith McIntyre was born in 1959. His work is informed by Surrealism and well renowned for crossing over a range of studio practice and performance disciplines. His interest lies in drawing, graphic fine art media and theatre. Keith has had numerous exhibitions and has been Visual Director on a range of collaborative projects including Rites (Scottish Chamber Orchestra), New Constellations for Wind, Reed and Drawing Instruments (BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art and Sage Gateshead) and HEID (Sounds of Progress). He has won the Scottish Open Drawing competition and worked with renowned children’s writer David Almond and actor Kevin Whately to produce the Savage, an ITV documentary in partnership with Seven Stories Centre for Children’s Books.
McIntyre’s practice involves working across and with a range of media and process including drawing, painting, printmaking, photography and performance, often coming together and synthesizing in the theatre, film, musical collaboration, dance and installation. Despite the range of media employed in his work, drawing always remains at its center. In recent years McIntyre has made many large-scale drawings, allowing the paper itself to become a site for discovery. Robert Burns ‘Immortal Memory’ has been at the center of McIntyre’s research for the past decade. He has examined the content and context of this great work, discovering how its meaning translates in powerful ways in a contemporary context.

- "Playground, Carl Schurz Park" George Picken, New York City, East River, UES WPABy George PickenLocated in New York, NYGeorge Picken Playground, Carl Schurz Park, 1938 Signed and dated lower left Oil on canvas 28 x 36 inches Provenance: Estate of the artist A native New Yorker, George Picken was born in 1898. His father, an artist and photographer, emigrated from Scotland; his mother came from Wales. They joined other European immigrants settling in New York City’s Hell’s Kitchen. Picken enlisted in the army during World War I and saw action at Verdun. After the war, he stayed in France and like many Americans returning from the vibrant Paris art scene, was inspired by the radical movement known as Impressionism. Upon his return Picken decided to follow in his father’s footsteps and become an artist. George began his studies in 1919 at the Art Students League during Robert Henri, Max Weber, and John Sloan’s tenure. There he took classes in studio art, illustration, and etching through 1923 studying extensively with George Bridgman. The writings of French philosopher Henri Bergson were widely circulated among the artistic community and looking at Picken’s early paintings one cannot help but wonder if as a young artist he was influenced by Bergson’s ideas. Bergson said, "[There are] two profoundly different ways of knowing a thing. The first implies that we move round the object; the second that we enter into it. The first depends on the point of view at which we are placed and on the symbols by which we express ourselves. The second neither depends on a point of view nor relies on any symbol. The first kind of knowledge may be said to stop at the relative; the second, in those cases where it is possible, to attain the absolute.” Picken’s recognition came early with showings of his work while he was a student. His drawings were published in the New Masses, a significant left-wing publication. The New York Public Library honored him with one-man shows in 1924 and 1928 and his work was included in group exhibitions at the Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation, the Whitney Studio Club, Montross Gallery, and the Art Students League. During this time Picken married Viola Carton, one of Reginald Marsh’s models, and they lived in Westchester. Later they moved to Yorkville in Manhattan between 82nd street and East End Avenue where they began their family. Picken’s grandson Niles Jaeger recalled that, “Grandpa’s home and studio were in a five-story walk-up apartment, heated only by a coal stove. But there were wonderful views of the East River and the Queensborough Bridge...Category
