About the Item
Subdued contemporary abstract oil painting on wood by Bay Area artist Michael Pauker (American, b.1957), c.2000s. The upper two thirds of this composition is a soft, textural impasto abstraction in warm, neutral tones created with wide, flowing brushstrokes. The lower third contrasts sharply in color as well as texture, as dark brown earth-tones are punctuated with small red accents. This versatile piece can be hung vertically or horizontally.
Titled "Les Danseuses" (The Dancers) and signed "Michael Pauker" on verso.
From a collection of the artist's work.
Unframed.
“I’m driven by curiosity...where it comes from I can’t tell you; it’s just there. And early 20th-century modernist art is the thing that I keep returning to.” - Michael Pauker
Bay Area artist and art educator Michael Pauker was born in New York in 1957 and knew he wanted to be an artist from the age of 15. He earned a Bachelor’s in Fine Arts at SUNY Purchase in his native state of New York. In 1989 he went on to earn an M.F.A at Mills College in Oakland and was awarded the City of Oakland Artist Fellowship in Painting. He has been a Bay Area resident since 1988. His work has been exhibited widely across the U.S., as well as in Japan and Costa Rica, and is included in the collection of the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco.

Dennis Eugene Norman Burton was a Canadian modernist who was born in Lethbridge, Ontario.
