About the Item

Attributed to Hans Namuth Robert Rauschenberg Gemini Editions advertisement Photograph on paper 14 x 11 Provenance Estate of Carolyn Brown, New York 2025. Born in Essen, Germany, Hans Namuth created his initial significant collection of photographic works in Madrid during the Spanish Civil War while on assignment for VU and LIFE. He later pursued studies in photography with Joseph Breitenbach in Paris and Alexey Brodovitch at the New School for Social Research after relocating to New York in 1941. During World War II, Namuth served with the French Foreign Legion and the U. S. Army Intelligence Service; following this, he returned to freelance photography, contributing to publications such as LIFE, Look, Time, Newsweek, Harper's Bazaar, and Vogue. Concurrently, he captured portraits of artists in casual environments, with his most notable work being a series on Jackson Pollock; among the more than two hundred artists featured are Willem de Kooning, Ad Reinhardt, Joseph Cornell, and Mark Rothko. Namuth's other significant photographic series include Early American Tools, created in the 1970s focusing on eighteenth-century tools, and Guatemala: The Land, The People, a project initiated in 1949, where he periodically revisited a town in Guatemala to record its progression. Apart from his photography, Namuth also directed several films featuring artists and architects like Pollock, Josef Albers, Constantin Brancusi, Louis Kahn, and Alexander Calder. When considered alongside his still photographs, these films highlight Namuth's profound engagement with portraiture. Throughout his career, he received various accolades for his film and photography, including the Merit Award from the Film Council of Greater Boston and a Public Service Award from the U. S. Department of State.

"Lumen" Rudolf Baranik, 1975 Political Abstract Imagery Collage Composition
Located in New York, NY
Rudolf Baranik Lumen, 1975 Signed, titled, dated on the reverse Collage on board 36 1/2 x 42 inches Born in Lithuania, he immigrated to the United States in 1938, when his family sent him to live with a relative in Chicago. His parents were secular Jewish socialists and were killed by the Nazis during the Second World War. Baranik was well known in the art world for his political advocacy, and was one of the first artists to organize protests against the war in Vietnam. Some of his best known works are the Napalm Elegies, a series of 30 antiwar paintings created between 1967 and 1974. His art was inspired by his sense of the gross inequities around the world, and he led virtually every progressive political movement within the New York art world from the 1960s to the mid-1990s. Significant exhibitions and awards include:1981 Guggenheim Fellowship in Fine Arts, 1982 "Art Couples 1: May Stevens and Rudolf Baranik," P.S. 1, New York, NY, and 1966 Peace Tower. Baranik's art is included in many collections, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Whitney Museum of American Art and the Hirshhorn Museum. Baranik died in Eldorado, New Mexico in 1998. The paintings of Rudolf Baranik are increasingly thought to be among the most important works of the New York School painting...
