Louise Miller Clark
Mid Century Modern Shore Bird and Lake

1948

About the Item

Beautiful study of a shore bird by a lake by Louise Miller Clark (American, 20th Century). Signed "Louise Miller Clark" with pallet and two brushes, lower right. Unframed. Image, 24"H x 18"L Frame, 29 7/8"H x 23 78"W x 1"D Louise was an active California Modernist who lived in Modesto, California and exhibited in many art shows and exhibitions. During the 1940s she signed her work Louise Miller with a pallet and two brushes monogram and in the late 1940s signed her work "Louise Miller Clark" with a pallet and two brushes, then throughout the 50s-60s signed "Louise Miller Clark" lower right. Her work ranged from Industrial abstracts to Symbolist and Synchromy style. Many California exhibitions featured her works including the Madonna Art festival, Lodi Grape and National Wine Show 1962. Clark's work is exemplary of synchromism, which became the first American avant-garde art movement to receive international attention. Founded in 1912, it was based on the idea that colors are like music scales and can be orchestrated in the same harmonious way that a composer arranges notes in a symphony. This is one of three examples of her rare works we have in our collection.
