About the Item
Harry Dunn (1929-1998). Island People, ca. 1970. Oil on masonite panel, 18 x 30 inches; 24 x 36 inches framed. Signed lower right. Excellent condition.
Dunn attended the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, Philadelphia College of Art & the Art Students League of New York. He worked in New York & Philadelphia in advertising, television & illustration. Among his notable achievements the NBC peacock, and the covers of The New Yorker, Park East &Fortune magazines.
Harry Dunn was extremely successful in two worlds of art, fine & commercial Dunn was every bit the versatile artist. Although his background includes extensive exposure to the Brandywine School of painting, his own personal style is far from traditional. Yet, it is a style that has wide appeal, and many of his works complement otherwise traditional collections bringing fresh –sometimes whimsical view of traditional subjects.
Design was an important facet of Dunn’s work which no doubt accounts for his extraordinary success in commercial design. Such corporate giants of his day Scott Paper, Yale & Towne, National Distillers, Bates Canon and Villager Clothes enjoyed positive sales impact from his creativity. In fact there was very little in the field of commercial art that Harry Dunn had not undertaken, designing openings for TV’s Hit Parade or Dave Garroway shows and promotional films when he directed the motion picture and slide film division of Mel Richman Inc. Dunn’s works were featured on the covers of House & Garden, Fortune and the New Yorker magazines.
For those who lived in the Delaware Valley in the 1960’s & 1970’s you would remember his murals in local hotels, apartment buildings and banks. He designed business logos and signs that many of us still remember.

- LandscapeBy Andre ElbazLocated in Wilton Manors, FLAndre Elbaz (b.1934). Landscape, ca. 1980 . Oil on card panel, image measures 14 x 20 inches; 18.5 x 24.5 inches framed. Signed lower right. Excellent condition. André Elbaz (born April 26, 1934, El Jadida, Morocco) is a famous Moroccan painter and filmmaker. Elbaz studied art and theatre in Rabat and Paris from 1950 to 1961. He started painting only at the age of 21, until which age he had been interested mainly in theatre. A few years later, he managed to combine his two passions into a new approach in art-therapy, inventing together with his wife, a psychiatrist, the Pictodrame, which brought him world recognition. His first exhibition, which was very successful, took place in Casablanca in 1961 and earned him an appointment as Professor at the Beaux-Arts school in Casablanca. Years later, in 1976, he exhibited his paintings at the Tel-Aviv Museum. In parallel to his career as a painter, Elbaz is also known as a filmmaker. He produced several short films in France, Canada and the United States. One of them, La nuit n'est jamais complète (The night is never complete), won a prize at the "5th Biennale de Paris in 1967" .[citation needed] Among the themes chosen for the many films he produced, there was a short one about the Warsaw Ghetto uprising, as well as a series of drawings entitled Seuls (Alone), with texts written by both Elie Wiesel...Category
