About the Item

Artist: Arthur Secunda Title: Night Bird Year: 1974 Paper Size: 26 x 23 inches Edition: Signed in pencil and marked 151/250 Arthur Secunda (b. 1927 – d. 2022) was an American painter, printmaker, and sculptor known for his vibrant, abstract compositions and mastery of color. With a career spanning over six decades, Secunda’s work explored themes of nature, movement, and emotional expression through bold geometric forms and striking contrasts. His art has been exhibited in major museums worldwide, including the Smithsonian Institution and the Museum of Modern Art. Secunda was also an accomplished printmaker, producing vivid screen prints that captured his signature aesthetic. Night Bird is a striking example of Secunda’s dynamic approach to abstraction and color. Set against a deep blue background, a bird-like form emerges, constructed from an array of vividly colored, torn-paper-like shapes. The composition conveys a sense of movement and freedom, characteristic of Secunda’s fascination with nature and flight. The bold contrast between the bright hues and the rich blue sky enhances the artwork’s vibrancy, evoking a dreamlike or celestial quality. This signed, limited-edition screen print is a testament to Secunda’s mastery of color theory and form, making it a valuable addition to any modern art collection.

Jimmy Ernst  Plate II - 1970 Print - Screen Print on Heavy Paper 28'' x 37'' inches Edition: Signed in pencil and numbered 24/125 Jimmy Ernst’s artwork was influenced by a number of powerful talents and vital currents in the art of his time. Son of Max Ernst, Jimmy drew upon the biomorphic and surreal compositions of his father, as well as Arp, Klee, André Breton, and Lyonel Feininger. His mature oil paintings, which emerged in the 1950s and 1960s, reflect the Atomic Age aesthetic of the period. Often, they resemble crystals or webs; many look like vast labyrinths and are interpreted as symbols of the unconscious mind. Ernst was always interested in spirituality and drew inspiration from indigenous American art...
