About the Item

"Blumen Bild " Heavy Impasto Expressionist Flower Still Life Abstract expressionist sill life of flowers in a vase by California artist Harald "Harry" Dry Schmidt (American, 1933-1979). The flowers are central to the composition with a heavily symmetric background. Large areas of color blocking are accentuated by heavy texture. Detailed areas of the painting feature large ridges, mounds of paint, and the evidence of wet-on-wet painting techniques. This piece has a swirling, post-impressionist style modeled after Van Gogh, Matisse, and Bonnard. Harald Dry Schmidt was an eclectic San Francisco Abstract and Outsider artist active from 1960-1990. Signed on verso " 'Blumen Bild' 76 Dry Schmidt" From a collection of the artist's work. No frame. Canvas size: 40"H x 35.5"W

BOUQUET Modernist Flowers in a Vase, Impasto Oil Painting
By Mortimer Borne
Located in Surfside, FL
Floral painting. Flowers in a vase. Mortimer Borne, Printmaker, painter, sculptor, and educator was born in Rypin, Poland in 1902 and emigrated to the US in 1916. He studied at the National Academy of Design, The Art Students League, The Beaux-Arts Institute of Design, and with Charles Webster Hawthorne, founder of the Cape Cod School of Art in Provincetown. Painted in a thick impasto style similar in technique to Samuel Rothbort and David Burliuk. Borne himself taught at The New School for Social Research in New York City from 1945-1967. From the 1920s through the 40s he was a prolific producer of New York City cityscapes and genre scenes. In later decades, he adopted a more modernist style apparently influenced by Picasso, producing color drypoints of abstracted figures. His works were widely exhibited in museums in the U.S. and abroad from 1931 and later, including the Art Institute of Chicago, the American Institute of Graphic Arts, Museum of Modern Art, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Corcoran Gallery of Art, New York Public Library, Carnegie Institute, and Royal Society of Painters, Etchers and Engravers in London. He taught at The New School for Social Research in New York City from 1945-1967, and at the Tappan...
