About the Item
Jean Xceron is a Greek-born American artist who participated actively in ushering the transition from modernism to Abstract Expressionism in American art. His canvases present a range of increasingly abstract forms, starting with recognizable figures and scenes that border on cubism, which later gradually dissolve into non-figural curves and colors that are entirely abstract.
Formerly in the collection of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York, IKON NO. 386, is later mentioned in a New York Times review of a 1984 retrospective at Kouros Gallery:
"One of the most beautiful works here is ''Ikon, No. 386'' (1954), a smaller canvas in which a darkly colored glyphic being - almost like a cave drawing - is conjured from a nondescript ground. [...] The freer spirit manifest by it, however, is plentifully evident in a slew of small-scale, sometimes Kleelike watercolors and ink-wash drawings. They delightfully reveal a much less formal side to this gifted artist, whose oils do not reward the viewer easily."

Dark Image, 1960 by Will Barnet (1911-2012)
Oil on canvas

Description:
This abstract oil painting by Will Barnet uses minute gradations in value to achieve a work that presents a contextual understanding of color. Upon first inspection, it looks as if Barnet has created a completely black canvas with some hints at forms in the darkness; however, upon a closer look, the canvas is, in fact, not black, but instead comprised of varied shades of dark, muted blues, grays, and purples. Barnet presents us with an illusion of vision, asking the viewer to question his perspective and understanding of color interplay.
At the beginning of his career, Will Barnet was known for his figural depictions of domestic scenes. But, as he continued to stylistically develop, Barnet arrived at abstract geometric paintings far removed from his original career. A part of the Indian Space...
