About the Item
Abstract on board. Deep blues with hints of tans, greens and reds.
About the Artist:
Famous abstract expressionist. Soffer was born in Baghdad, died in 2017.
In the early 50’s he made his way to New York City where he studied with Ad Reinhardt, Mark Rothko, Burgoyne Diller, and José de Rivera. He dedicated the early part of his career to abstract painting and developed what would become his signature color — a deep ultramarine blue— which he often embellished with Arabic calligraphy.
Soffer was invited to exhibit at the Whitney Biennial in 1962 and won a Ford Foundation Purchase Award to the Whitney Museum. In 1963, Soffer began to focus on three-dimensional works and soon became widely known for his public sculptures. In 1966, his work was included in the Whitney Museum Annual.
His sculptures were exhibited at Lincoln Center, Battery Park, the Indianapolis Museum of Art, Bard College, New York University, Harvard University, Hampshire College, Queens College, and Connecticut College. They are currently being displayed in China, Israel, Lithuania and Cuba.
