- Gate of Chi ReserveBy Harriette JoffeLocated in Lawrence, NYThis work exhibits many of the themes that preoccupied her during her career, including the repudiation of the distinction between abstraction and figuration, a distinction that preoccupied her mentor Willem De Kooning, the introduction of a female perspective to her art through the reinterpretation of classical art, and the incorporation of a kind of secular, esoteric, materialistic Jewish tradition into her work. Joffe was serious in a way that many artists today are not: she was an artist engaged with the major questions of her time, attuned to the development of her chosen métier, its intrinsic problems and possibilities. Joffe's career spans the post-World War II Abstract Expressionist movement to the present. She is known for her powerful images of women and horses, often intertwined, and representing reciprocal ideas of power, grace and beauty. Indeed, one NYT critic said that she returned the beauty and grace to the female form that De Kooning had taken away. Embraced by the first generation of Abstract Expressionist painters on the East End of Long Island, she represented a link to central figures in the avant-garde of 20th century American art, including such artists as Willem De Kooning (she was a studio assistant), Philip Pavia, Ibram Lassaw, John Little and Balcomb Greene. She did Tai Chi with Elaine De Kooning on the beach in East Hampton. She exhibited nationally in galleries and museums, showing alongside artists such as Roy Lichtenstein, Eric Fischel, Linda Benglis, April Gornick, Larry Rivers, and Jackie Windsor. Joffe also worked with the pioneering Down Under Manhattan Bridge Overpass, or DUMBO, artists finding a voice within the then emerging New York City avant-garde in the 1970s. Joffe's contribution to the history of Abstract Expressionism is featured in the East Hampton Parrish Museum's "oral histories" series. Note: this work was the cover image of the catalogue for the Joffe Retrospective at Lawrence Fine Art...Category

- Ballerina - unique painting by Paula CraioveanuBy Paula CraioveanuLocated in Forest Hills, NYGracious ballerina, in a moment of silence and meditation. Part of my "Nude in Interior" series Original painting, one a kind. No need for frame. Shipping directly from the artist's studio, stretched, wide stretcher. 15.7x15.7x2in / 40x40x5cm "As a woman artist I’ve been preoccupied with the female form and imagery. My goal is to capture the nude’s relation to the surrounding space and the solitary moments. My interest turned from depicting the space to depicting the atmosphere, and the feeling a woman adds to the environment: warmth, joy, a feeling of power and control, or the opposite – sadness, despair. The human figure is more present than ever in my paintings." Paula CraioveanuCategory
