About the Item

Inscribed on reverse “Композиция, птица, угольник, маска, Э. Штейнберг Январь - 1968 г.” (Composition, Bird, Square, Mask, E. Steinberg, January- 1968” Shortly after his birth, his father was arrested by the Stalin regime and thrown into prison. Upon his release, the family settled in Tarusa, and Edward helped his parents in their pursuits, though he had no professional artistic education. He lived in Tarusa from 1957 to 1961, teaching himself to paint by making copies of still lives, portraits and landscape paintings of Tarusa. (Russian, 1937 – 2012) Edward Steinberg was born in 1937 in Moscow, Russia. Moving to Moscow in 1962, he actively participated in the nonconformist movement. In the 1970s Steinberg began creating his own version of geometrical abstraction (metageometry), where a plastic construction is seen as a consequence of a spiritual impulse. His work has been exhibited widely and is present in many museums around the world; The Museums of Leverkusen and the Josef Albers Museum.

Mexican artist Heny Steinberg’s abstracted landscapes invite us to travel from the map to the localized event. The shapes within Steinberg’s work transcend two dimensional representation and have meaning beyond visual appearance. Her process begins with concrete images and references, yet over time give way to her process. Her abstractions fluctuate between representation and abstraction of variables.. Her works are reminiscent of American Abstract Expressionists like Helen Frankenthaler but also have a clear Mexican Cubist...
