c.1970

About the Item

signed lower right. size includes frame. The French artist Claude Hemeret was born on May 23, 1929. After classical studies at the lycée du Parc Imperial in Nice, he started at the l'Ecole National des Arts Décoratifs. In 1952 Hemeret started his career as an illustrator and collaborated with several interior magazines. Not until 1966, he devoted his life to post impressionist painting and exhibited at Galerie Rosenberg in Paris the following year. He was soon contacted by Galeries d'Art. Thus, his international success started with around 40 exhibitions in the period 1975-2001 in Cannes, New York, Florida, Tokyo, Brussels, Luxembourg, Hamburg, California and Singapore. His last major exhibitions were in the Opera Gallery in Singapore in 2001 and in Galerie Cimaise d'Or in Luxembourg and Galerie Robin Léadouze in Paris that same year. 20th-21st century Art, Abstract Art Movement, Expressionist Art, landscape painter, lithographer, still life painter. Hemeret is romantic in its expression. The motifs revolve around traditional landscapes and elegant still life in dough pastel colors that slide over to each other. Flowers often return, as the main motif of the image or as a foreground to reinforce the distance between distant fields and the near. Claude Hemeret is a French contemporary artist, whose paintings seem to reflect the life he leads, rythmed by nature. His still life works are extremely popular. Born in Nice in 1929, thanks to his childhood spended in the sun, Hemeret grew fondling southern lights and scents fed him and quenched his thirst. His canvases recall the lavender’s perfume, cypresses, and the blazing Sun at noon. Hemeret cultivates love and friendship with a talent and an art, which have nothing to envy to his pictorial genius. Though, no portrait on his pictures, no person, evens a hazy figure. As to people, Hemeret prefers to have them near him.

  • Large Pastel Landscape Purple Mountains Landscape American Modernist Painting
    By Larry Horowitz
    Located in Surfside, FL
    LARRY HOROWITZ (American b. 1956) "Purple Mountains," 1988, pastel on paper Hand signed and dated L/R, "Horowitz '88," Dimensions sight 19 1/2" x 23", framed, 26 1/2" x 30 1/2". Larry Horowitz is an American landscape painter. He was born in 1956 in New York City and graduated from SUNY Purchase and immediately won the prestigious and coveted position as apprentice to Wolf Kahn. Horowitz's work captures the beauty of the American landscape with expert use of texture and color that invites imagination and discovery. Although he paints en plein air, he has a firm grounding in abstract expressionism through his education with former students from the Bauhaus and Hans Hofmann school. He has combined both points of view to develop his unique language. His work follows in the tradition of great Modernist American landscape painters Arthur Dove, Georgia O'Keefe and Charles Burchfield but with a more modern, Fauvist color palette. He was included in the show "In the Country, By the Sea" at Madelyn Jordan Gallery along with David Kimball Anderson, Stanley Boxer, Byron Browne, Derek Buckner, Richard Diebenkorn, Larry Kelsey, Gary Komarin, and Susan Wides. Horowitz has also shown at Images Gallery along with Gary Bukovnik, Helen Frankenthaler, Larry Horowitz, Alex Katz, Robert Motherwell, Don Nice, Philip Pearlstein, Joseph Raffael, Hunt Slonem, Carol Summers and Neil Welliver. Horowitz has exhibited extensively both in the US and Canada and is included in numerous private, corporate and public collections.

  • Cookham Dean, A Post Impressionist Landscape, Homage to Cezanne
    By Bernard Meninsky
    Located in Cotignac, FR
    An English Post Impressionist gouache of trees in a landscape by noted artist Bernard Meninsky. The painting is signed bottom right and presented in a very fine custom patinated and gilt frame with cloth insert, under glass. There is an exhibition label to the back of the frame, giving the painting's location 'Cookham Dean' in Berkshire near the home of noted contemporary of Meninsky, Stanley Spencer. Provenance: The Boydell Galleries, Liverpool. A charming work when Meninsky was clearly showing the influence and his love for the paintings of Cezanne. The simplification of forms, as well as the flattening of landscape and the use of colour to give perspective. An earlier work by Meninsky but important in his artistic journey to his evolving style. Bernard Meninsky (25 July 1891–12 February 1950) was a British painter of figures and landscapes in oils, watercolour and gouache, a draughtsman and a teacher. Meninsky was born in Konotop, modern-day Ukraine, where his father was a tailor and the family were Yiddish-speaking Ukrainian Jews. They moved to Liverpool when Bernard was six weeks old. Although Meninsky left school at the age of eleven, his talent for art was demonstrated by the sale of a drawing to a local comic postcard business. While working as an errand boy during the day, he attended free classes in art in the evenings, and these enabled him to gain a place at the Liverpool School of Art. He studied there from 1906 to 1911, being financed by a succession of scholarships. He attended summer courses at the Royal College of Art, London, in August 1909 and August 1910, and in 1911 he won a scholarship to study at the Académie Julian in Paris for three months. With financial support from the Liverpool Jewish community and the Jewish Educational Aid Society (JEAS), Meninsky studied at the Slade School of Fine Art in London in 1912. His contemporaries there included David Bomberg, Isaac Rosenberg...
