About the Item

Composition No. 12 Gouache on paper, c. 1926 Signed lower right: “Urban Weis” (see photo) Condition: Excellent Image: 16 5/8 x 10 5/8" Frame: 21 1/2 x 15 5/8" Provenance: Dudensing Galleries, New York, label (see photo) Max Ember, Los Angeles, CA Exhibited: _________ Art Association (partial label) Note: Dudensing Galleries was the leading center of European and American Moderniest works of art in New York. Founded in 1924 by F. Valetine Dudensing. It changed names to Valentine Gallery in 1926 which ceased operation in 1947. The gallery was carried over post 1947 by their Assistant Gallery Director, Pierre Matisse Henri Matisse’s son, under the name Pierre Matisse Gallery. Little is known about Urban Weis. There are commercial magazine illustrations made in the 1930-1940 period attributed to him. One other oil painting with a Dudensing provenance surfaced at auction. This work appears to be heavily influence by Picasso (one of Dudensing’s stable of artists) from the 1920’s.
