About the Item

Breakdown Figures is an original colored lithograph realized by Hugh Weiss in 1971. Hand-signed and dated by the artist on the lower right corner. Numbered on the lower-left corner (83/120). The artwork represents a very funny composition with different breakdown figures: a couple dipped upside down in a giant cup or a human-looking cat sleeping on a chair. Hugh Weiss (1925-2007). Son of Maurice Weiss, maker of flags, and his wife Esther Margles, he studied at high school in Philadelphia, then at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in 1940. He entered the Barnes Foundation in 1943, graduated in art history, he participated in the War of the Pacific during the Second World War. The vision of dismembered bodies will resurface in his paintings towards the end of his life. A first personal exhibition was organized in 1949. Between 1950 and 1975, he presented twenty-five exhibitions in galleries and museums in Europe and the United States.
