About the Item
"Design in Black & White" is a lithograph by the well-known Michigan designer Lance Lawlor. He was a Master of linear and decorative design and this print displays the talent for which he was sought after.
Lance Stephen Lawlor was born January 6, 1955, in Detroit, Michigan. He attended the University of Michigan, graduating with a BFA in 1975 from the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design. He was a student of world renown costume designers of the 1930s-1950s, especially Adrian Adolph Greenberg (Dinner At Eight, Grand Hotel), Orry George Kelly (Casablanca, Now, Voyager), and Edith Head (Rear Window, Vertigo). Throughout the 1980s, he was a costume designer for Ann Arbor Civic Theater (The Late Christopher Bean, The Boyfriend) and University of Michigan Gilbert & Sullivan Society. From 1986-87, Lance served as a costume technician in the University of Michigan theater department.
Lawlor enjoyed a variety of pursuits, including floral design, furniture restoration, and decorative painting, eventually settling into a life-long career as an Interior Designer. He had an unerring eye for color, fabric and proportions, and attracted both commercial and residential clients from California, Florida, Connecticut, Chicago, Mexico, Mackinac Island, and all over Michigan. He worked on diverse projects, including many professional offices, salons, Liberty Sports Club, and with the Iroquois Hotel on Mackinac Island for eighteen years.
He had the gift of using humor to direct clients, many of whom became friends, to a better design decision with such lines as, "You have two choices, and one of them is wrong." He left a lasting legacy of beautifully designed spaces and warm and welcoming homes. Lance loved opulence in contemporary and traditional style, gardens, art, beauty, Northern Michigan, and a solidly made cocktail.

- Jean Dubuffet Lithograph Art Brut "I. Traces grotesques"By Jean DubuffetLocated in Detroit, MISALE ONE WEEK ONLY "I. Traces grotesques" is an Artist’s Proof Lithograph. “Proofs” are either pulled or printed, and the artist has the option to work out the color and quality issues as they come out of the process. The only real difference between the two is the restricted quantity of prints bearing the AP designation and not the quality of the print. This lithograph is signed and titled by the artist, Jean Dubuffet, which indicates his complete satisfaction with the print. It is from 1958 and a perfect example of his style, “Art Brut.” His idealistic approach to aesthetics embraced what is called “low art”, art by non-academically trained artists. It is sometimes referred to as “outsider art.” He did study briefly at the Academie Julian, Paris, but eventually followed his own aesthetics which eschewed traditional standard of beauty in favor of what he believed to be a more authentic and humanistic approach to image-making. This lithograph expresses the beauty he found in the meandering spontaneous black line. Jean Dubuffet began painting at the age of seventeen and studied briefly at the Academie Julian, Paris. He painted off and on for the next 20 years. It was not until 1942 in the midst of WWII in France that he began the work which has distinguished him as an outstanding innovator in postwar Europe. It is said of his work that “he looked to the margins of the everyday – the art of prisoners, psychics, the uneducated, and the institutionalized – to liberate his own creativity and coining the term ‘Art Brut’.” Art Brut is a French term that translates as ‘raw art’, to describe art such as graffiti or naïve art which is made outside the academic tradition of fine art. His paintings from the early forties in brightly colored oils were soon followed by works in which he employed such unorthodox materials as cement, plaster, tar and asphalt-scraped, craved and cut and drawn upon with a rudimentary, spontaneous line. Dubuffet worked in France and exhibited from the early forties on. He was included in the 1946 Pierre Matisse...Category
