About the Item
Watercolor on paper
Painted while studying at the Bauhaus, Dessau, Germany
Considered to be one of the founding fathers of American abstraction, Werner Drewes was one of the first artists to introduce concepts of the Bauhaus school within the United States. Born in Germany, he spent several years at the famous Bauhaus design school studying with Paul Klee and Wasiliy Kandinsky. In 1933, when the Nazis closed the Bauhaus, Drewes emigrated to the U.S. There he became an ardent proponent of abstract painting. His work can be found in the collections of the Whitney Museum, MOMA, the MET, the Brooklyn Museum and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston

- Rocks, Stonington, MEBy Mercedes MatterLocated in Lawrence, NYUnsigned, Gifted the artist Charles Cajori by the artist. Accompanied by COA. Mercedes Matter was destined for a life in art. She was the daughter of Mercedes de Cordoba, a former model for Edward Steichen and other members of the Photo-Secession, and Arthur B. Carles, an important early modernist American painter who studied the art of Paul Cézanne and Henri Matisse in Paris in the 1910s. This early and persistent exposure to modern art led Matter herself to begin painting at the age of six. In the early 1930s, she studied with the artist Hans Hofmann, like nearly every important American abstract painter of the next generation. This German-born painter is of course famous for teaching the concepts of abstract painting that would define the New York School: the “push-pull” approach to composition and the focus on the picture plane. During the Depression, Matter worked for the Works Progress Administration alongside Willem de Kooning, Arshile Gorky, and Lee Krasner. The project she and de Kooning collaborated on was directed by Fernand Léger, for whom she served as a translator. In the early 1950s, Mercedes was among the first female members of the Club, an organization of downtown artists that held frequent discussion evenings; she was also a regular at the Cedar Tavern. For Mercedes, “The Club was marvelous. It brought together in one place, at one time, the greatest diversity of artists—as nothing had done before or has since. . . . The end of that marvelous time came when American art became big business...Category
