About the Item

Original Abstract Expressionist Painting - "Lovers’ Embrace" Wonderful example of a vibrant abstract expressionist figurative of couple embracing by Katherine Kallick (American, b. 1952), circa 1975. A nude man and woman appear upon a blue couch, a green light sits to the left of them. Medium: Oil on Paper Unsigned, from a collection of the artists signed work Unframed Paper size: 28.5"H x 22.5"W Katherine Kallick (American, b. 1952) studied painting at the San Francisco Art Institute in 1973-1977. Kallick eventually woul become an acclaimed as a bluegrass musician and folk singer. Kallick’s first musical influence was her mother, Dodi. Music historian Larry Ehrlich wrote of her mother: “Dodi Kallick’s voice could be as tender as Carter Stanley, as plaintive as Piaf, or as cutting as a straight razor. It could bring sorrow to your heart or a smile to your lips.” Although central to Chicago’s folk scene, Dodi never recorded in a studio. But, an uncovered reel-to-reel of radio broadcasts inspired Kathy Kallick to follow her 2002 project, My Mother’s Voice, with an 18-track sequel. On Disc 1, Kathy invited friends to perform the songs she learned from her mother, and Dodi’s voice is heard on Disc 2. The collection’s title track, “What Are They Doing in Heaven Today,” appears on both. She discovered her interest in bluegrass while living in San Francisco, and co-founded the internationally acclaimed group Good Ol' Persons. She has since gone on to release 22 albums.
