About the Item

Lyman Kipp Untitled Minimalist Painting, 1964 Ink roller on paper Hand signed and dated by Lyman Kipp on the front; inscribed on the back to Gene Baro (the distinguished critic and curator who died in 1982) 14 × 21 1/2 inches Unframed Provenance: Estate of Gene Baro, Bennington College, Bennington VT This painting on paper is by pioneering Minimalist Lyman Kipp, one of the original founders of ConStruct, the artist-owned gallery that promoted and organized large-scale sculpture exhibitions throughout the United States. Other founding members include Mark di Suvero (a flamboyant self-taught former construction worker known for his bombastic industrial steel I-Beam works), his protege John Raymond Henry, and constructivist masters Kenneth Snelson, and Charles (Chuck) Ginnever. However, Lyman Kipp, the most under-recognized of that group, is arguably one of the best. His work is pure Minimalism, celebrated in the groundbreaking 1966 group show "Primary Structures" at the Jewish Museum. Kipp is known for his use of strong vertical and horizontal strokes and objects in his compositions, as exemplified in this exquisite work on paper. Inscription: to GENE January 1965 KIPP Provenance: Estate of Gene Baro, Bennington College, Bennington VT Gene Baro was born in New York City in 1924. He authored five books, including Beat Poets (1954), Claes Oldenburg (1969), and Nevelson (1974). His poetry and short stories were published in a wide variety of journals, including The New Yorker, and his largest poetry collection was published in Poetry Today VI as “Northwind.” He was most well-known for his work as a curator and art exhibition organizer. His exhibitions, over 150 in total, were widespread; he curated displays at the Kennedy Center, Brooklyn Museum, and Carnegie International. He was also the director of the Corcoran Gallery. Baro died in 1982.

Untitled (Abstraction)
By Rolph Scarlett
Located in Fairlawn, OH
Untitled (Abstraction) Ink on textured paper, c. 1958 Signed lower right "Scarlett" (see photo) Condition: Excellent Archival framing with OP3 Acrylic Sheet size: 21 3/4 x 30 inches Frame size: 28 1/2 x 36 1/2 inches Note: A rare mid to late 1950s example of the artist's abstract expressionist style. Provenance: estate of the artist Private Collection, Hudson River Valley, New York Rolph Scarlett B. 1889, GUELPH, ONTARIO; D. 1984, WOODSTOCK, NEW YORK Born on June 13, 1889 in Guelph, Canada, and into an artistic family, Rolph Scarlett spent his teenage years as an apprentice in his uncle’s jewelry firm and briefly studied at the Art Students League, New York. While working in the jewelry industry, Scarlett found time to paint and design theatrical sets in his free time, including one for the 1928 world premiere of Eugene O’Neill’s drama Lazarus Laughed (1926). In 1923, while on a business trip to Switzerland, Scarlett had met the artist Paul Klee and soon after abandoned his figurative painting style in favor of an abstract language that suggested more universal, cosmic truths. In 1937, after permanently settling in New York, Scarlett became acquainted with the artist and curator Hilla Rebay, the first director of the Museum of Non-Objective Painting (renamed the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in 1952). Rebay provided Scarlett with a Guggenheim Foundation scholarship to paint full-time and obtained several of his paintings for the museum’s collection. From 1940 to 1946, Scarlett served as the museum’s chief lecturer, giving Sunday afternoon talks on art. Through Rebay, Scarlett became acquainted with the nonobjective works of Rudolf Bauer and Vasily Kandinsky and further refined his abstract style. Works from this era such as Yellow Bar (1942) are defined by overlapping geometric planes of bright, primary colors set against mute backgrounds. Scarlett avoided any reference to the outside world and believed that nonobjective painting was an act, in his words, of “pure creation.” During his lifetime, solo shows of his work were held at the Jacques Seligmann Gallery, New York (1949); Sioux City Art Center, Iowa (1951); and Washburn Gallery...
