About the Item
Signed lower right, 'A.Danitschek' for Amanda Danitschek (American, born 1956) and painted circa 2010. Additionally signed, verso, and titled, 'No One Said It Would Be Easy'.
A substantial Modernist figural oil showing a view of a man dressed in a multi-colored coat and leaning away from a scumbled, parchment and ivory background.
Born in Delano, California, Amanda Danitschek first studied art and design at San Jose City College and, subsequently, at West Valley College, Saratoga. Danitschek explores her fascination with postures, expressions, and colors in her collages and paintings through unconventionally observed figures that often appear untethered from the physical world.
Speaking of her work, the artist has said: "My figurative paintings are a menagerie of quirky creatures that evoke a curious sense of dislocation. They are redolent of actors in a play, characters from a novel and depression-era survivors. I am fascinated by postures, expressions, colors and textures. I eliminate detail so that the persona is left with only their essence. The alternative reality is shared with birds, boats and ethereal costumes. The stage is set and the figures are finding their path; their role in life."
(with thanks to the artist's website)
