Abstract Work on Paper Mid-Century Modernism Greek American Gouache Drawing
By Jean Xceron
Located in New York, NY
Abstract Work on Paper Mid-Century Modernism Greek American Gouache Drawing.
A modernist artist who emigrated to America from Greece in 1904, when he was fourteen years old, Jean Xceron is described as having a reputation as an artist that has mysteriously fallen into obscurity---especially since he was reportedly quite prominent during his lifetime. However, a partial explanation of that omission is the fact that many of his papers and early records have been lost. He was a painter of biomorphic abstractions and did collages, which were influenced by Dadaism.
Xceron was active in New York City when modernism was gaining influence. Of him during this period, it was written that his artistic role was "a vital link between what is commonly termed as the first-generation (the Stieglitz group, the Synchromists, etc.) and second-generation, the American Abstract Artists, the Transcendental Painting...

Provence landscape , 1946 - oil paint, 46x61 cm.
By Maurice Mendjinzky
Located in Nice, FR
Oil painting on hardboard depicting a Provence landscape with olive trees and hills. Signed on left side low.
Maurice Mendjizky, was born on July 20th 1890 a Lodz in Polonie and died on may 8th in Saint-Paul-de-Vence (Alpes-Maritimes, France).
A museum is tributed to him, the Mendjisky - Ecole de Paris museum, in Paris.
He lived in St. Paul de Vence and good friend with Renoir, Signac, Modigliani and Picasso
Au départ passionné de musique, il part dès son plus jeune âge à Berlin étudier dans une école de composition. Mais, excellent dessinateur, il s’intéresse finalement à la peinture et part pour Paris. Entre 1906 et 1907, il fait un rapide passage dans l'atelier de Fernand Cormon à l'École des beaux-arts de Paris.
Il quitte vite l'atelier pour une vie plus libre où il travaille beaucoup et se fait rapidement remarquer par les grands marchands de l’époque. Il expose chez Georges Petit en 1912. La préface du catalogue est d’André Salmon. Ces mêmes années, il fait la connaissance de Léopold Zborowski, un des grands marchands d'art de l'époque et devient l’ami de Amedeo Modigliani, Pablo Picasso, Auguste Renoir.
En effet, c'est en 1913 qu'il rencontre Renoir. Ce dernier l’invite régulièrement chez lui aux Collettes, à Cagnes-sur-Mer. Enthousiasmé par la lumière et l’atmosphère de la Côte d’Azur, Maurice Mendjizky incite ses camarades, Modigliani, Chaïm Soutine, Léonard Foujita à le rejoindre. Après un séjour en Pologne et Russie, il revient à Paris et rencontre la Alice Prin...
