“Web” is an original 1950s abstract mixed media painting by important American modernist and New Mexico artist Ward Lockwood (1894–1963). Signed by the artist at the lower right, the composition combines casein and India ink in a sophisticated palette of brown, blue, white, and black. Interwoven lines, organic forms, and layered shapes create a dynamic, web-like structure that reflects Lockwood’s interest in abstraction, experimentation, and modernist design. Lockwood’s work bridges the traditions of American Regionalism, Taos Modernism, and postwar abstraction. His experience in Europe, exposure to Paul Cézanne and Vincent van Gogh, and later involvement with the Taos art community and Federal Art Project helped shape a career defined by continual artistic exploration. The painting is presented in a substantial custom frame, making it an excellent statement piece for a modern, contemporary, or Southwestern interior. It is particularly appealing to collectors seeking historically significant American modernist painting associated with Taos and New Mexico. Frame Dimensions: 29 ¾ x 23 x 2 inches Image Size: 26 x 20 inches About the Artist Born in Kansas in 1894, Ward Lockwood studied at the University of Kansas and the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts before serving in the U.S. Army during World War I. His military service brought him to France, where he encountered European modernism and was strongly influenced by Cézanne and van Gogh. He later returned to Paris to study at the Académie Ranson. In 1926, Lockwood settled in Taos, New Mexico, where he became closely associated with the Taos art community and the Taos Society...

ABSTRACT American Woman Abstract Non-objective Mid 20th Century Modern Drawing Irene Rice Pereira (1902-1971) Abstract 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches Watercolor, gouache, and ink on black paper Signed lower right Framed by Bark BIO rene Pereira was born in 1902 in Chelsea, Massachusetts and grew up in Great Barrington. She was strongly influenced by her mother who was an amateur artist. Irene began art lessons at the age of fifteen; she took a secretarial job because her father had died. She took art classes at the Art Students League in New York City. At the age of twenty-one she married the first of three husbands, Humberto Pereira, whose name she kept. She traveled extensively in Europe and North Africa and was much inspired by the expansive vistas of the Sahara Desert. Returning to New York, she began incorporating these visions into her work, increasingly experimental in her styles and methods. At first she painted on canvas, then she devised a means of actually incorporating light into her works by painting on layers of glass and mounting the layers together. In 1942 she married George Brown, an engineer, who helped her experiment with a variety of materials. By the 1950s she became more interested in writing poetry and, divorced from Brown in 1952, she married George Reavey, an Irish Poet...
