Aristodimos Kaldis
Landscape with Cypress and Fence

1970

About the Item

Art critic Hilton Kramer called the Greek-American artist Aristodimos Kaldi's paintings "beautifully executed landscapes in a lyric mode. . . all delicacy and nuance and romance. . . " Kaldis was a New York School painter with an outsized personality even by the standards of his peers. Like Gorky and Chagall, he incorporated memories of his homeland into his work, which seemed to make it all the richer. He was a master in the use of white, a stand in for the intense bright white light of his homeland. "Under the pressure of that light, color too becomes more luminous, less equivocal and more forthright in experience," Kramer wrote. This is one of those "white" paintings.

    By David Hayes
    Located in Lawrence, NY
    Gouache on paper signed en verso Throughout his sixty-year artistic career, David Hayes created sculptural forms abstracted from organic forms encountered in daily life. He first studied with American sculptor David Smith, who was among the first to work with welded steel. Hayes' sculptures have affinities to Alexander Calder's playful stabiles (Hayes met Calder in Paris) and to the shapes and colors of Matisse's late paper cutouts. Hayes works are firmly rooted in modern artists' interests in industrial materials and in commercial fabrication processes. He has had more than 400 exhibitions of his work. His work is in more than 70 museum collections, including MOMA and the Guggenheim. Throughout his career, Hayes painted models for his sculptures and sculptural-like landscapes of the geography surrounding his home in Northwestern Connecticut. In these landscapes, the gently rolling hills become modernist forms and shapes, recognizable as landscapes but also as explorations of shape and color. These are intriguing works of art in and of themselves. Lawrence Fine Art...
