About the Item

Tom Alan Lieber, (American, born 1949), GTW #11 -7, 1986, Oil and mixed media on paper, 30.25 x 44 inches, Hand signed and dated lower right Provenance: Garner Tullis Workshop, N.Y. A bold and beautiful in red, gold, black and white. Tom Lieber is originally from St. Louis but moved to Berkeley in 1975 after finishing his BFA and MFA at the University of Illinois. Lieber then moved to San Francisco to fulfill his affinity with Bay Area color field painting. In 1975 he was a recipient of the National Endowment for the Arts. In 1982 he was selected for Emerging American Artists’ exhibition at the Guggenheim Museum, New York, by curator Diane Waldman. (Diane had studied and knew Mark Rothko, Joseph Cornell, Willem de Kooning, Philip Guston and Roy Lichtenstein, amongst others). At this time he was also invited to join the John Berggruen Gallery. In 1983 Lieber began making large scale monotypes with Garner Tullis at Experimental Press. Through Tullis he has met John Walker, Sean Scully, Friedel Dzubas, Helen Frankenthaler, Sam Francis, William Wiley, and others. Throughout the mid and late 80s and the 90s Lieber's work was shown nationally and internationally. Post war American Abstract Expressionism. Tom Lieber’s recognizable, calligraphic mark-making continues to be a focus in his paintings. The grace and shape of his bold lines appear over subtle neutral backgrounds with pockets of dense color and movement. Lieber’s new, large canvases, thick with paint, can evoke a reference to Joan Mitchell in the foreground mark-making, at the same time the nuanced color variation in the backgrounds leave a suggestion of Mark Rothko. While these visual influences are present, the work and the energy that it emits can be no other than Tom Lieber. Often a single brushstroke or gesture anchors the painting, allowing the underlying color fields and tonal variations to recede and advance across the ground. In the year 2000, Lieber moved to Kauai and continued painting works majorly influenced by the environment in Hawaii. He now shares his time painting between Los Angeles and Kauai.

    About: Alena's artistic approach is intuitive and gestural. She often works with a limited color palette of encaustic pigment and uses an iterative and spontaneous approach to apply the media. The final phases of creation sometimes include additional intuitive mark-making, subtle line work and sentimental hand-written text from historical, contemporary, or autobiographical sources. Washi Paper: The texture and slight distress in select areas near certain media application is intentional and intended to be part of the overall aesthetic. Shipping: The artwork will be rolled, shipped in a tube, and take approximately 5 business days. For shorter delivery timelines please message Alena directly to make arrangements. Matte and Frame Ideas: Float frames (glass/no glass over the monotype; glass will "flatten" the monotype) Traditional frames with or without a matte When framing the monotype a light ivory or white matte board illuminates the colors. For assistance and/or advice with framing and mounting the monotypes, please contact me directly. Signature and Certificate All artworks are signed on the back in pencil and include the title, creation year, and my signature. A certificate of authenticity is also included with the artwork. ++++ Alena Ahrens is a contemporary American-Asian artist. She studied performance art at MoMA...
