David Avery
A Kind of Flying -The Invisible Hand

2021

About the Item

Medium: Etching Year: 2021 Edition Size: 25 Image Size: 4.5 x 9.75 inches One of several recent prints by Avery that continue to win awards and purchase by museums and public collections. Surrealistic image with references to Goya, Max Klinger and other surrealist artists. David Avery continues to explore the expressive and technical possibilities inherent in black and white line etching. His work is included in the collections of the Fogg Museum at Harvard University, the New York Public Library, the Achenbach Foundation for the Graphic Arts, the Stanford University Library among others, and has been noted in the New York Times. Even though “black and white doesn’t sell”, he has eschewed the use of color, finding the subtleties and tonalities of black and white most capable of creating the psychological mood that allows his work to be effective.

  • The Investor
    By Art Hazelwood
    Located in Palm Springs, CA
    Signed and numbered woodcut from the edition of 15. Political satire is a frequent topic in Hazelwood's work. This print shows a stock investor dancing happily past a homeless figure on the ground, while visions of stock quotes fill his mind. This is the last print available from the edition. Art Hazelwood calls himself artist, instigator and impresario to define the three intertwining areas of his practice. He uses printmaking within a range of political allegory and satire making work from political posters to fine press edition artist books. He has curated and organized a range of exhibitions at venues from museums to immigrant centers.
