Charles Perry Weimer
Art Deco Couple In Front of Black and White Art Deco Architecture

1930s

About the Item

Art Deco Illustrator Charles Perry Weimer creates a powerfully graphic depiction of a 1930s couple in front of a classic Art Deco building with a clock face. This work is particularly relevant in today's artworld, where few artists can do tight renderings with carefully composed compositions and proper perspective. The emanating white lines from the building's roof into a black sky give a sense of dynamic energy to the work. Weimers technique is evocative of more than a typical Art Deco work and moves into a more dreamlike, surrealist style. Signed lower right. Framed under plexi. Overall good condition with some uneven distribution of ink and some light toning and a few light surface soiling spots

BLUE JAY WAY
By Christina McPhee
Located in New York, NY
BLUE JAY WAY, 2012 ink and graphite on Arches cold press paper 44.5 x 75 inches / 1130 x 1905 mm  unframed Christina McPhee’s expansive abstract paintings, drawings, photographs, and videos test or query how can we know, and who is we? Moving from within a matrix of measurement, observation and contingent effects, her work resists characterization as product, and continually accesses fields outside itself. For her, process equals trial. Her work emulates potential forms of life, in various systems and territories, from a perspective of the non-self– a world beyond identity. McPhee’s dynamic, performative, physical engagement with materials, in both her analogue and digital works, is a seduction into surface-skidding calligraphic gestures and mark-making. The tactics of living are in subterfuge, like the ‘dazzle ships...
