With a career spanning over five decades, Selma's artistic journey has taken her from Brooklyn to the prestigious halls of UC Berkeley, Chouinard Art Institute, and UCLA, where she earned her Masters of Arts and MFA. In this dynamic artwork, bright blues, reds, yellows, and greens dance across the canvas, forming abstract shapes that resemble a menagerie of bugs, birds, and flowers. Thick impasto paint adds tactile depth to the composition, while generous white spaces between the forms provide breathing room for the viewer. Selma's rich artistic legacy, showcased in notable exhibitions including UCLA, NYU, Long Beach Museum of Art, Museum of Contemporary Art Los Angeles, and the National Museum of Women in the Arts DC, is now yours to explore and appreciate. Bring her timeless abstraction into your space and immerse yourself in the world of Selma Moskowitz.

- UntitledBy Michael GoldbergLocated in Austin, TXOil, pastel, and paper collage on canvas. Signed and dated verso. 52.75 x 47.75 in. 54 x 49 in. (framed) Gilded floater frame. Provenance Compass Rose, Chicago Born Sylvan Irwin Goldberg in 1924 and raised in the Bronx, Michael Goldberg was an important figure in American Abstract Expressionism, who began taking art classes at the Art Students League in 1938. A gifted student, Goldberg finished high school at the age of 14 and enrolled in City College. He soon found New York’s jazz scene to be a more compelling environment, and he began skipping classes in favor of the Harlem jazz clubs near campus. Goldberg’s love of jazz would become a lifelong passion and a key component to his approach to composition in his paintings. From 1940 to 1942, like many of the leading artists of the New York School, Goldberg studied with Hans Hofmann. In 1943, he put his pursuit of painting on hold and enlisted in the U.S. Army. Serving in North Africa, Burma, and India, Goldberg received a Purple Heart and a Bronze Star before being discharged in 1946. After his service, he traveled and worked in Venezuela before returning to the United States, settling back in New York and resuming studies with Hofmann and at the Art Students League. Living downtown and frequenting the Cedar Bar, Goldberg befriended many of the artists of the New York School. In 1951, his work was included in the groundbreaking Ninth Street Show, co-organized by Leo Castelli, Conrad Marca-Relli, and the Eighth Street Club, and featuring the work of - among others - Hofmann, Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, and Franz Kline. In 1953, the Tibor de Nagy...Category
