Frealon Norden Bibbins'Organic Abstract', Large oil by San Francisco artist, Bay Area Abstraction1976
1976
About the Item
Signed lower right 'Norden' for Frealon Norden Bibbins (American, 1926-2013) and dated 1976.
Additionally signed verso, 'Bibbins'.
A substantial 1970's abstract evoking graceful, oceanic forms and comprising fluidly superimposed and adjacent, diaphanous layers of scarlet, rose, lilac, and grass-green against a variegated sunshine-yellow field.
This listed California artist, author and musician lived and painted in Alameda and also had a distinguished career with the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra (1943-63). Additionally, he was a long-time clarinettist with the Woodwind Quartet. In his paintings, he used music as inspiration for his forms of abstraction, incorporating flowing sequences of form and a harmonically integrated palette. Bibbins was also an honorary member of the Nepal and Tibet Philatelic Study Circle and the author of several monographs on Tibetan philately. We are pleased to offer a substantial work dating to the artist's middle period.
