Budd Hopkins' paintings in the 1960s combined the precise, hard-edge geometric shapes he was enthralled with and drawn to as a child with gestural, atmospheric painting characteristic of second- and later-generation Abstract Expressionists. "I had come to understand that an abstract painting at its most powerful was a kind of aesthetic scrim behind which lurks a concealed, obsessive 'thing' or image of some kind, transformed, made palatable by the artist's mediating skills." Hopkins viewed collage as an artistic technique and a philosophical, aesthetic means of unifying a disjointed and fragmented world. He saw collage, the assemblage of fragments and varying points of view, in the poetry, painting, sculpture, music, architecture, and, especially, motion pictures of his day: "Consciously or unconsciously, contemporary artists work to create harmony from distinctly jarring material, forcing warring ideas, materials and spatial systems into a tense and perhaps arbitrary detente. Seen most broadly, the presence of the collage aesthetic is the sole defining quality of modernism in all the arts." Hopkins worked to achieve harmony, clarity and precision while maintaining a sense of mystery: "I like neither extreme in art wholeheartedly, neither the purified world of geometrical art nor the free, indulgent world of Expressionism." In 1963, Hopkins' work was included in American Painters, a film documentary of American artists and styles with commentary from Alfred Barr of the Museum of Modern Art, Thomas Hess of Art News Magazine, Sidney Janis, gallery director, and Harold Rosenberg, art critic. Later, Hopkins included abstracted figures in his sculptural pieces. While moving away from Abstract Expressionism, Hopkins retained in his work the use of intense colors and hard-edged forms. His works of the 1980s, including Temples and Guardians, featured these "sentinals" who were, according to Hopkins, "participating in a frozen ritual, fixed – absolutely – within a privileged space…" Though Hopkins denied any connection, some critics viewed these ritualistic pieces as an extension of Hopkins' fascination with alien beings. Hopkins viewed his sculpted guardians not as human per se, but as magical, fierce, noble robots of the unconscious. Hopkins exhibited his paintings and sculptures in museums, galleries such as Andre Zarre, Levis Fine Art and Poindexter (New York) and Jan Cicero (Chicago), and universities throughout the United States. Hopkins had a major retrospective exhibition at the Provincetown Art Association and Museum in the summer of 2017. The Whitney Museum, Washington Gallery of Modern Art, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Museum of Modern Art, Corcoran Gallery of Art, the British Museum, include Hopkins' work in their permanent collections.

Untitled (Abstract Expressionist Painting)

Bertha G. Davis (1911-1997)
Untitled, ca. 1960's
Oil on cradled masonite panel.
16 x 20 inches; 24 x 28 inches framed.
Signed lower left. Artist estate stamp on verso.
Vintage custom wormy chestnut frame.
A painter of cityscapes, landscapes, and abstracts in Texas, Bertha G Davis was primarily a self-taught artist whose style was influenced by her early life experiences in pre-World War II Lithuania and later Mexico. Her style is expressionistic*, relying on color to denote her profound feelings. She works primarily in watercolor and acrylic with some mixed media*.
She is the daughter of Abraham and Dvora Germaize of Vilna, Lithuania and grew up in Jewish ghettos in Vilna, Alita, and Kovno. Davis was influenced by her father who was a decorative wood-worker and carpenter in Lithuania. The family of five daughters and a son escaped to Mexico City in the late 1920’s because of Jewish oppression. The images and emotions she experienced had no outlet.
She was known as a beauty, and at age 17 was named Jewish Miss Mexico, barely able to speak Spanish having just emigrated from Eastern Europe. Irving Davis, a merchant from Texas who had also come from Eastern Europe via Cuba, saw her at this event where she was crowned Jewish Miss Mexico, and three days later asked for her hand in marriage. They moved to a small town in Texas, raising a family.
Her daughter, Sylvia, was born when Davis was 20 and they were inseparable. As Sylvia became an actress, painter, and sculptor, Davis was amazed at the capacity for creativity. Davis didn’t begin her own artistic journey until she was 47, when her daughter Sylvia Caplan encouraged her to try. She was inspired by this daughter who gave her a drugstore palette of watercolors, paper and brushes and told her to “just try.” Davis did not put down her palette and brushes until her death in 1997.
Bertha G Davis was primarily self-taught but maintained a style oriented toward color and texture that reflected her strong feelings. Most of her early work was done while she lived in McAllen, Texas where she was known for her contribution to art and showed her work and the work of other artists at the Bertha Davis Gallery.
She studied with Stewart Van Orden, at Pan American College in 1960-61; and was a student at the Art Institute San Miguel Allende, Mexico, 1965. She was also a student of Harold Phenix...

Provenance
Estate of Jack Roth
Born in Brockway, Pennsylvania, Jack Roth was at various times a painter, poet, photographer, and mathematician. He enrolled at Pennsylvania State University in 1943 to study chemistry, but like many of his fellow Abstract Expressionists, his matriculation was interrupted World War II, where he served in both the Army and Air Force.
Discharged from the service in 1948, Roth moved to Big Sur, California and married his first wife, Colleen Bleier, with whom he had two daughters. A year later, the young family settled in San Francisco, where Jack enrolled at the California School of Fine Arts. It was here that he studied painting under Mark Rothko, Clyfford Still, Richard Diebenkorn, David Park, and Elmer Bischoff.
The Roth family left the Bay Area to return to Pennsylvania, where Jack completed his Bachelor of Science degree in Chemistry in 1951. In pursuit of his seemingly discordant academic interests, Roth moved yet again, this time to Iowa where he received a Master of Fine Arts at Iowa State University in 1953. Seeking gainful employment, Roth moved to New York, settling in the lower East Side where he began looking for a teaching job and working as a reviewer for Arts Digest magazine.
Now divorced, in 1954 Roth married the artist Rachel Chester whom he had met in Iowa. He continued to paint and work odd jobs, some of which were as a hotel night clerk and an orderly at Beekman Downtown Hospital. That year, he unsuccessfully applied for the Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellowship in the field of photography.
However, Roth’s professional prospects greatly improved when his work was selected by James Johnson Sweeney, Director of the Guggenheim Museum of Art for the traveling exhibition Younger American Painters, alongside giants such as William Baziotes, Richard Diebenkorn, Adolph Gottlieb, Philip Guston, Franz Kline, Willem de Kooning, Robert Motherwell, Jackson Pollock, Morris Louis, and others. One of the first major debuts of the Abstract Expressionist movement to be shown at an American museum, the exhibit traveled to the prominent museums across the country. In 1956 he began graduate work in mathematics at New York University.
Opting to dive back into academia, Roth began graduate coursework in mathematics at New York University in 1956. He enrolled at Duke University in 1958, receiving his PhD in mathematics in 1962.
Roth continued to create art throughout the pendency of his graduate studies and in 1963, legendary Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) curators Dorothy Miller and William Lieberman recommended Roth as the new talent graphic artist for Art in America. Concurrently, MoMA purchased several works from Roth for the museum’s permanent collection.
During this period of artistic achievement, Roth continued to teach - first, at the University of South Florida in Tampa, before moving back north to Montclair, New Jersey, where he was hired as the chairman of the Mathematics department at Upsala College. In 1971 he accepted a dual appointment at Ramapo College, teaching both mathematics and advanced painting. After he received tenure and his finances were secure, his artistic production thrived as he received the first Thomases Award for contributions at the school, which came with the use of a large studio space. This allowed him to work with larger canvases and become what he saw as an Abstract Expressionist Color Field painter.
In 1978, the acclaimed gallery Knoedler & Co. in New York began representation of Roth’s work. Other artists represented by the gallery at this time included Alexander Calder, Adolf Gottlieb...

GREGG ROBINSON
The universe of visual art encompasses a huge spectrum of motivation and means of expression. Examples range from the most syrupy sentimentality to extremes of moral and intellectual confrontation. For me, the creative process is, on the simplest level, an aesthetic puzzle. Elements of the puzzle include contrast, color, visual texture, graphic pattern, and in some recent work, a simple cryptic symbolism.
I have never been particularly interested in lyric or pictorial content, and though some of my work does contain undeniable spatial illusion, even that tends to be a by-product rather than a goal of the primary pursuit: the balance of light and dark, pure color and organic neutrals, energy and calm, strong pattern and subtle field. Having grown up in an environment of contemporary architecture, I have always valued the classic modern synthesis of form and function exemplified by the Bauhaus movement of the early 20th century. Hence, the simplest solutions are often the most satisfying. Obviously, the modernist ideal of efficiency in form and function requires that method of execution be as well adapted to the aesthetic goal as the visual language itself.
The media before you is the result of many years of experimentation that came to its current form in early 1992. I work with dry pigment over a plaster surface. My tools are broad knives, sponges, rags and masking. The finish is a high gloss alkyd resin.
