Shawna Leach
Grecian Garden - Figurative Abstract

1990

About the Item

Beautiful figural abstract with Ionic columns and plants by Shawna Leach (American, b.1962). Signed lower right. Displayed in a giltwood frame. Image, 23"H x 23"L. Shawna Leach was born in 1962 in Kittery, Maine. She attended the Gorham Campus of the University of Maine in Portland; Calvin College in Grand Rapids, Michigan; and the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque. In addition, she studied sculpture under Tom Hays during a two-year apprenticeship. Most of Leach's current work is on paper and canvas, and often has a low relief quality. This flirting with the third dimension, along with the sometimes metallic and gem-encrusted look of her pieces, clearly bears the mark of her training as a sculptor. Collage and other materials are built up into a texture that is both rhythmic and engaging. Her imagery ranges from realistic representation to abstract expressionism.

Landscape Abstraction - Mid-Century - Twenty Paintings in One
Located in Miami, FL
At the height of Abstraction Expressionism, overlooked Academic Artist John Atherton created a wonderfully complex painting that embodies many of the characteristics of what was going on in Mid-Century American Art. The work is simultaneously abstract as it is representational. Like a Bento Box, it's divided into sections by dividers. On close inspection, each section stands on it's own as a beautiful mini-painting yet coalesces as part of the whole. From a distance, it is eye-pleasing, but as the view gets closer and closer, new structures and details gloriously reveal themselves. This is an important painting and not unlike the work of Joaquín Torres-García. It was done in the last year of the artist's life. Signed lower right. Canvas is relined. Framed size: 30 x 41.25. The work is best viewed with top gallery lights to bring out color. Color will look different under different lighting conditions. Atherton exhibited at the famous Julien Levy Gallery in New York and his fine art is mainly associated with Magic Realism. He participated in the seminal 1943 Museum of Modern Art exhibition, American Realists and Magic Realists. The Museum of Modern Art has 4 Atherton paintings in its collection. As an Illustrator, Atherton did covers for the Saturday Evening Post, Fortune and Holiday Magazine...
