Wonderfully provocative sketch drawing of a gathering of men and women in pencil by outsider artist Mylo Quam (American, 1941-1996). Signed lower right. Presented in giltwood frame with black mat under glass. Image size: 8.25"H x 10.50"W. A long-time Woodstock area resident, Mylo Quam was a self-taught painter and draughtsman whose provocative figural work has been compared to Renaissance painters Sandro Botticelli and Hieronymous Bosch, as well as to twentieth-century artists Egon Schiele and Gustav Klimt. Quam was an avid reader who derived inspiration from such varied arenas as Shakespeare, the occult, the Bible, Eastern and Western mythology, politics, and popular culture. "I look at everything," the artist was quoted as saying in 1990. "I read the comic pages. Anything visual. There's very little I don't think is a subject for art." Born in North Dakota, Quam studied Greek language and other classical subjects at Brandeis, Boston, and New York Universities, and worked as a translator of Greek plays while just 17 years old. After a successful career as an actor that included numerous Off-Broadway performances and a leading role in the 1968 Broadway production of Royal Hunt of the Sun, Quam turned his focus to painting. His first one-man exhibition was at the Boatman Gallery, NYC in 1969 and was followed by twenty solo shows over the course of his career at venues including Gallery A, Flynn Gallery, CFM Gallery, Brewster Gallery, Imperial Gallery, Runyon Winchell Gallery and the Gallery of Erotic Art, all in New York City. Quam's work was also exhibited at the John Pense Gallery in San Francisco, the Clark-Whitney Gallery in Massachusetts, the Barrett House and Desmond Weiss Galleries in Poughkeepsie, and for many years at the Ann Leonard Gallery in Woodstock. Quam's paintings were exhibited internationally, as well, notably in a solo exhibition in Haiti-- the first by an American artist in that country. In addition, he was one of four artists to represent the United States in La Bienalle di Venezia, Italia of 1986. As a young man, Quam designed sets and/or costumes for the Actor's Playhouse in New York City, the Lucas Hovig Ballet Company, and the Opera Municipal de Marseilles, France. He also created illustrations for The Story of O...

This artwork is a delightful depiction of a Parisian street which scales the hill to the neighbourhood of Montmartre, the home of the basilica of Sacré-Cœur.

Upon request a video of the piece may be provided. About the Artist: Roland DuBuc (1924-1998), French artist, the sixth of 13 children and son of a construction worker. The very precariousness of the family's financial situation forced him to go to work at the age of 14. In extreme poverty, he moved to Rouen where he was lodged by the Salvation Army. During that time he struck up friendships with several artists who gave him advice and taught him techniques of drawing. He moved to other cities later where he met painters including, among others, Fred Pailhès...

Spanish Modernist Female Figure Drawing, Catalan Post-Impressionist Pencil Work Elegant 1970s pencil drawing of a seated woman by Casimir Martínez Tarrassó, a Catalan artist connected to post-impressionism, fauvist color culture and Mediterranean modernism. Artist: Casimir Martínez Tarrassó Title: Seated Woman Medium: Pencil on paper Date: c.1975 Artwork dimensions: 31 × 21 cm / 12.20 × 8.27 in Framed dimensions: 47 × 37 cm / 18.50 × 14.57 in Frame: Included Condition: Good vintage condition Origin: Spain Style: Spanish Modernism, Catalan Post-Impressionism, Figurative Drawing DESCRIPTION This delicate pencil drawing by Casimir Martínez Tarrassó captures a seated female figure within an intimate interior scene, rendered with quick, expressive and confident graphite strokes. Rather than a finished academic study, the work has the immediacy of an artist’s private notebook: direct, nervous, elegant and full of movement. The seated woman appears surrounded by fragments of domestic space, giving the composition a quiet psychological atmosphere and a distinctly European studio feeling. Tarrassó’s line is loose but controlled, suggesting form through rhythm rather than detail. The drawing belongs to the refined tradition of modern works on paper, where the value lies not in decorative excess but in the visible intelligence of the hand. This piece will appeal especially to collectors of Spanish modern art, Catalan artists, female figure drawings, post-impressionist works on paper and intimate European modernist interiors. ARTIST BIOGRAPHY Casimir Martínez Tarrassó (Barcelona, 1900–1979) was a Catalan painter and draughtsman trained at La Llotja School in Barcelona. He later continued his artistic education in Paris, where he came into contact with the atmosphere of French modern painting and the fauvist movement. His work is closely associated with Mediterranean landscapes, still lifes and figurative compositions, combining Catalan pictorial tradition with the influence of French post-impressionism and modernism. He exhibited in Barcelona, Madrid, Palma de Mallorca and Bilbao, and received several distinctions, including the Pollença Prize in 1962 and the Santiago...
