About the Item

Fred Karoly (1897-1987) Oil on Canvas created 1963. In excellent condition. A very attractive abstract subject and typical for the artist. Signed and dated 1963 on the verso. Framed simply in a modern black wood frame. Measures 28"h x 24"w. Frame size: 29.5"h x 25.5"w x 1.25"d. Fredric Karoly was born in Budapest in 1897. According to Karoly's own vitae, his exhibition history began in New York in 1947, when at the age of 54 he took part in a four-person group show at Hugo Gallery. His involvement with visual art however was apparently lifelong. In a brief introduction to his solo show at Galerie Mai in Paris in June of 1949, Jen Luc de Rudder, reports that Karoly began painting at the age of 12 in Budapest. After several years of studying, then working in London, Paris and Berlin, Karoly emigrated to the United States in 1925 or 1926. In New York, Karoly worked in women's fashion as a designer. By the early 1950's, Karoly started experimenting with the drip and splatter process as well. Drip paintings dominated his process until the late 50's-early 60's, when linear compositional elements began to reemerge. By the late 50's multi-layered drip grid motifs asserted a masque of spatial organization over looser washed fields and splatters of paint that Karoly worked off of. This development was consistent with concurrent explorations into the grid by artist Agnes Martin and others. In the mid-60's, Karoly produced a number of photo-silk screened series of Picasso, De Kooning and other significant artists of his generation. These were executed in a style somewhere between Rauschenberg's and Roy Lichtenstein's, primarily because of their reliance upon half tones and Ben-Day dot effects. Then Karoly began a series of paintings conflating his drip and grid styles with super imposed and painted over string. In the late 60's Karoly embarked upon a series of multi-paneled stretched linen constructions often with slits and fiber optic back-lit elements that were prescient of the work of Dan Flavin and others. It was this body of work that was shown at Hofstra University's Emily Lowe Gallery, and it was these works that suffered perhaps the most irreparable damage from a steam/water infiltration in a space where they were being stored. Frederic Karoly died on December 15, 1987, at the Inter-Continental Hotel in Manhattan, where he had made his home for many years.
