Robert Moesle'Dynamic Figurative', California Post-Impressionist, Ruskin School of Art
About the Item
Signed lower right "Moesle" and painted circa 1975.
Gouache and watercolor figurative showing numerous figures in dynamic interaction.
Born in 1932, Robert Moesle studied painting at San Jose State and, subsequently, at the Ruskin School of Art in Oxford, England. During his student years he traveled widely in Europe and was particularly influenced by the Spanish masters in Madrid's Prado Museum. At the Prado, Moesle made line-drawings that he would later work up into paintings at his summer home in Costa Brava. He returned to Northern California in 1965 where he exhibited at various San Francisco establishments including the Triton Museum in San Jose and the Monterey Museum of Art, where he also taught a popular class on watercolor. In 1969, Moesle and his wife returned to France, settling in the Loire Valley where they bought an old farmhouse that they still occupy. He began to send his paintings back to be exhibited at The Perry House Gallery in Monterey where a series of one-man shows met with great success. Since 1989, Moesle has exhibited at Zantman Galleries in Carmel and Palm Desert.

- Natasha (Sitting), Mixed media on Pergamenata parchmentBy Howard TangyeLocated in London, GBHoward Tangye (b.1948, Australia) has been an influential force in fashion for decades. Lecturing at London’s Central Saint Martins for 35 years, including 16 years as head of BA Womenswear. There, he tutored many contemporary greats, including John Galliano, Stella McCartney, Christopher Kane, Wes Gordon, Zac Posen and Hussein Chalayan. Examples of Tangye’s portraits are held in many important collections, both public and private, including the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A), Harvard University and London’s National Portrait Gallery. Throughout his teaching career Tangye quietly developed a particularly idiosyncratic art practice. By employing a decisive line with bold applications of richly layered materials, Tangye explores the nuances of the human form in an effort to expose his subjects’ true essence and energy. — Howard Tangye Natasha (Sitting), 2012 Mixed media on Pergamenata parchment 100 x 70 cm (39.37 x 27.55 in) (signed) (unframed) — This portrait shows Natasha, an ex-student and model.
