About the Item

Saied Dai (b.1958), draughtsman and teacher, born in Tehran, Persia (his second name is an abbreviation of the full Persian version). He described himself as “wilfully independent”, and was a serious artist who tackled a wide range of subjects without regard to fashion. Dai was brought to England aged six and was largely abandoned by his parents, being sent to boarding schools and uncongenial foster parents. He described his secondary school as “a hermetically sealed society based on physical and psychological violence.” Dai studied at Bournemouth School of Art and Design, graduating to the Royal Academy Schools where his teachers included Peter Greenham, Norman Blamey, Roderic Barrett, Lawrence Gowing, Victor Pasmore, William Scott and Leonard Rosoman. He was invited back to teach drawing under Leonard McComb and insisted that “Drawing reveals the way an artist thinks. It is the means by which one makes visual relationships.” Dai’s solo show at Petley Fine Art in 2005 was accompanied by a well-illustrated catalogue with a perceptive introduction by Roger Berthoud. Dai lived near Bath, Somerset.

Museum Piece #2 Art Lover in Museum Exhibition
By Arnold Friedman
Located in Miami, FL
Arnold Friedman studied with Robert Henri and Kenneth Hayes Miller at the Art Students League in 1905 . Yet as he developed his style he abandoned the academic influence of his teacher. He started experimenting with materials and techniques. Friedmans intimate style recalls a variety of post-impressionist artists such as Pointillism of Pisarro, Vuillard and Nabis, and perhaps even Seurat. His thick application of paint has definitive textual impasto that was influenced by his trip to Paris in 1909. In "Museum Piece...
