About the Item

GEORGES ARTEMOFF "LA FEMME ASSIS A LA MANTILLE NOIRE” OIL ON PANEL, SIGNED RUSSIAN-FRENCH, DATE 1963 PROVENANCE: GALERIE MAKASSAR , PARIS 31.75 X 20 INCHES Illustrated in the catalogue raisonnè. George Artemoff 1892 - 1965 George Artemoff was born in the Don Valley area of Russia in 1892. He studied in Rostov and Moscow before he came to the Montparnasse district of Paris in 1913. There he became acquainted with Ossip Zadkine, Juan Gris, Jules Pascin, Modigliani, and Picasso. In 1914 he joined the French Foreign Legion, only to be wounded at Champagne. He returned to Russia where he remained through the Revolution until 1923. In 1923 he took a studio in Paris. His work was influenced by his Russian heritage; he often painted scenes featuring Cossacks or various themes from Russian folklore. In 1927, he exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Décorateurs where he won the silver medal, and in 1928, the gold medal. He exhibited continuously throughout the 1930s in Paris and all across France. In 1937 his work was featured in one of the pavilions at l'Exposition Universalle, one of the most important exhibitions of the decade. His work was almost always figurative, usually featuring women, though he also painted some religious compositions, still life, and a very few landscapes. Artemoff's work was clearly influenced by his famous friends, though his own unique style makes his work readily identifiable. Artemoff died in 1965. A retrospective exhibition in Toulouse, France in 1992 celebrated 100 years since his birth.

    By Emil Ganso
    Located in Los Angeles, CA
    EMIL GANSO "SEATED NUDE" CHARCOAL WITH COLOR WASH, SIGNED AMERICAN, C.1930 21.5 X 15.5 INCHES Biography from Butler Institute of American Art Emil Ganso 1885-1941 Ganso was born in Germany in 1895. At age 14, he apprenticed to a baker and then worked his way to America when he was 17. He worked in bakeries in Scranton, Pennsylvania; and Cincinnati and Akron, Ohio. By 1916, Ganso was out of a job, and living the life of a bohemian in New York City, sometimes on less than 30 cents a week. In 1921, Ganso painted on a realistic nude on a bedsheet and was forced by the police to remove it from an exhibition. The bedsheet with the painting was later stolen. He soon had a job baking again at $140 a month, and with time to spare for painting and study. Ganso quit baking in 1925 when a New York dealer game him financial backing of $50 a week. Ganso has prospered from his art ever since. His work is in over 15 American museums, and the Print Club of Cleveland awarded him a $500 purchase prize for a wood engraving. A versatile artist, he paints a variety of subjects. Source: from a profile written by Clyde Singer...
