About the Item
On the Beach - 11-12-20 Old Vintage Photo Years ago I saved a vintage picture of a nude on the beach. Origin unknown and my best guess would be from the 1930s or 1940s. The picture was rather grainy and but it showed a great composition of a female body in slanted position. Very simple but also essential. Then years pass by and like an old love you forget about her, only to pop into your memory all of a sudden. On a Diet After my last graphite pencil drawing 'Hommage to the Entombment of Christ by Caravaggio - 05-12-20' I was in the mood for keeping things essential again and that is when I remembered this one. It is like after a fine 5 course dinner the one thing left is to go on a diet. The fine thing of such an artistic diet is that the drawing does not become so elaborated. Correspondingly I searched for some powerful lines and plains. Of course the tilted body already granted me a powerful dynamic composition, only for me to keep it as basic as possible. Tonality Because of the strong cast shadow to the right of the body I was not in need of anything fancy in the negative space around the female form. In fact, I kept parts of the contour delineation to the left open and sketched in some midtoned plains in the positive form. Last but not least, I decided to call it 'On the Beach' as a token of my minimalist approach. My hope is that the viewer will interpret the beach around her body because of the title. Hopefully the drawing will not have such a dramatic effect on the viewer than the movie bearing the same name.

- A Graphite on Paper Mural Study of a Rail Yard by Rudolph Weisenborn, ca. 1940By Rudolph WeisenbornLocated in Chicago, ILA graphite on paper, untitled mural study, Cubist scene of a rail yard by WPA-era artist Rudolph Weisenborn, ca. 1940. Archivally matted to 16" x 18". Provenance: Estate of the artist. Rudolph Weisenborn was born in Strassburg, Germany in 1881, but was orphaned at the age of nine. He was taken-in by Mid-Western farmer Thomas Westaby and spent his early years in Wisconsin, Iowa and North Dakota. Weisenborn first attended the University of North Dakota in 1898, then the Students School of Art in Denver. Various accounts have him working out west as a gold miner and cowboy. Around 1912, he settled in Chicago and worked as a window designer for Marshall Field’s. Weisenborn is best known as the founder of the Chicago No-Jury Society of Artists. The group was founded because many artists could not get their work accepted into the mainstream Art Institute shows. Weisenborn is quoted as saying that he harbored feelings of disdain for any jury and that his own paintings were frequently rejected by conservative jurors. He was also involved and helped found other radical artist’s groups such as the Salon des Refuses, Cor Ardens and Neo-Arlimusic. In 1936, he helped found the New York-based American Abstract Artist’s Group. He created the only abstract mural for the 1933 Century of Progress Exhibition in Chicago and also worked for the Federal Arts Project in the Easel Division. His WPA murals can be found in Crane Technical High School and Nettlehorst Elementary School in Chicago, IL. In 1945, Chicago businessman Herman Spertus...Category
