By Eduardo Chillida

Located in Miami, FL

Eduardo Chillida (Spain, 1924-2002) 'Bidegin', 1972 etching, chine colle on paper Velin Arches 250 g. Image size: 12.75 x 9.25 in. (32.5 x 23.5 cm.) Sheet size: 29.8 x 21.9 in. (75.5 x 55.5 cm.) Edition: 67. 50 numbered, 7 P/A (Artist Proofs), and 7 H.C. Unframed ID: CHI1038-011 Hand-signed by author It is documented in Chillida, E. (1999). Eduardo Chillida – Opus P.I 1959-1972. Chorus – Verlag. pp 314 – 315. Nr 72015. ____________________________________________________ He began his career in 1943 studying architecture at the University of Madrid, but in 1947 he dedicated himself to drawing and sculpture, and in 1948 he moved to Paris, then the world capital of the arts. Although he abandoned his studies, his work betrays his architectural training, showing an underlying sense of structural organization, as well as discipline in materials, planning of spatial relationships, and scale of elements. Over the years, the artist turned to materials that showed his investigations into conceptual questions and metaphysical concerns. Chillida's first stone and plaster creations oscillated between the human world and the natural world using figures and images of landscapes. Consistently guided by the quality of space, density and rhythm, his works consider ways in which mass and volume contain space. His public works, which exist on a more massive scale, not only inhabit the space but also determine a qualifying space of their own. His monumental sculptures, designed for both urban and more secluded spaces, are permanently installed internationally and constitute an important facet of his artistic production. The main retrospectives of Chillida's graphic and sculptural work have been mounted by the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston (1966); Carnegie Institute, Pittsburgh (1979); National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC (1979); Guggenheim Museum (1980); Miramar Palace, San Sebastián (1992); and Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Madrid (1999). Chillida received numerous awards, including the Grand International Prize for Sculpture at the Venice Biennale (1958), the Kandinsky Prize (1960), the Carnegie Prize for Sculpture (1964), the Andrew...

Large Colorado Modernist Oil Painting Wharf Street New Orleans Joellyn Duesberry

Located in Surfside, FL

Joellyn T Duesberry Wall on Wharf Street, #513, New Orleans, LA 1976. Oil on linen Dimensions: (Frame) H 50.5" x W 66.5". sight size 50 x 66" Hand signed and titled verso Joellyn Toler Duesberry (1944 – 2016) was a plein air landscape artist who worked in oils. Joellyn Duesberry American Landscape Painter Bridging Realism and Abstraction Joellyn Toler Duesberry (1944–2016) was an American landscape, Plein Air, painter working primarily in oil, celebrated for canvases that hold realism and abstraction in deliberate tension. Born in Richmond, Virginia, on June 30, 1944, Duesberry developed an early, formative connection to the land growing up in rural Virginia, seeking out woods, creeks, and lakes as places of solitary refuge and sketching from childhood. Though she went on to earn two advanced degrees — graduating with highest honors from Smith College in 1966, followed by an MFA from the Institute of Fine Arts at New York University — Duesberry is considered a self-taught painter, developing her singular style largely outside the classroom. Mentorship Under Richard Diebenkorn The defining turning point in Duesberry's development came in 1986, when she received an Individual Painting Grant from the National Endowment for the Arts to study with the celebrated Bay Area painter Richard Diebenkorn. Though Diebenkorn's influence on her work was conceptual rather than stylistic, Duesberry often cited him as her most significant mentor, crediting him with instilling three ideas that shaped the rest of her career: that the abstract and the real are indistinguishable in painting, that the modernist exploration of all poles of expression should be pursued without timidity, and that an artist's compositional instincts are rooted in deep, often unconscious memory. Diebenkorn also encouraged Duesberry to take up monotype printmaking, a medium she embraced with passion and continued to exhibit alongside her paintings for the rest of her career, working for many years with Denver's Open Press. It was this period of study that prompted her move from Manhattan's Bowery to Colorado in 1985. Exhibition History Duesberry began exhibiting in New York City in 1979, eventually mounting ten solo exhibitions there, and was later represented by Tatistcheff Gallery and Graham Modern in New York, as well as Broschofsky Galleries in Ketchum, Idaho, among roughly seven galleries coast to coast. Major retrospectives followed at the Denver Art Museum (Joellyn Duesberry: Three Decades of Paint, January 2006) and the Century Association in New York, as well as a fifty-year retrospective at the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center, accompanied by the monograph Elevated Perspective (2011). In 1997, she received the Benjamin Altman Landscape Prize from the National Academy of Design, and from 1998 to 1999 she held a World Views residency with the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council, painting from studio space in the World Trade Center's North Tower — an experience that gave her body of work a lasting connection to Ground Zero following September 11, 2001. Style and Legacy Critics and dealers alike have noted that Duesberry's contemporary canvases echo the modernist masters John Marin and Milton Avery, sharing their bold color and their instinct for finding underlying geometric structure within the observed landscape. Her plein air practice took her across the American Northeast and West, particularly Colorado and New Mexico, as well as Italy and France, and she maintained a decades-long connection to the Colorado art scene after moving to Denver in 1985. In 2005, PBS produced a documentary on her life and work, Joellyn Duesberry: Dialogue with the Artist. She died on August 5, 2016, at age 72, following a long struggle with cancer. Her work is held today in the permanent collections of the Denver Art Museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the National September 11 Memorial and Museum, the Smith College Museum of Art, the Yale University Art Gallery, and the Jundt Art Museum at Gonzaga University, among others.
