"Wild Roses" Framed Oil on Masonite Panel, by John Heliker, American

About the Item

Framed Oil "Wild Roses" on Masonite Panel, by John Heliker, American (1909-2000). Retains Gallery Label from Kraushaar Galleries, New York. Kraushaar Galleries was founded in 1885 and is still in business. Determined to become an artist, Heliker dropped out of high school to copy paintings at the Metropolitan Museum. From 1927 until 1929 he studied with Kimon Nicolaides, Thomas Hart Benton, and Boardman Robinson at the Art Students League. After several years away Heliker returned to New York in the 1930s and in 1947 joined the faculty at Columbia University where he taught until his retirement. Heliker won a Prix de Rome in 1948 and spent the next five summers in Italy. At this time larger strokes and freer designs began replacing the structural, Cézannesque abstractions that occupied him in the 1940s and early 1950s. A painter of landscapes, portraits, and still lifes, Heliker chooses traditional subject matter for his semi-abstract, painterly compositions. He exhibited extensively at the Kraushaar Galleries, in New York City. Beginning in 1945, he had nineteen shows there, including his final one in 2000 that would be on the gallery walls shortly before his death on February 22nd at age ninety-one. Frame dimensions are 20" X 30". Trent Antiques has been a respected name in antiques for over 30 years with a large collection of period furniture, art, books, jewelry and decorative accessories.
