About the Item

Minuit - From the 12 plate Portfolio, 1959 Published by Denise Rene, Paris Lithograph in colors on heavy paper 20 x 26 inches Signed, dated and numbered in ink, edition of 150 copies AUGUSTE HERBIN (1882 1960) French artist Auguste Herbin was a leading figure of Modernism in the 20th century who was influential in the rise of non objective painting Although his relationships with Cubist painters and his predilection for geometric abstraction associated Herbin with Cubism, his works avoid exact categorization into a particular movement Herbin’s techniques and approaches evolved over the course of his career, culminating in a deep understanding of color and form which synthesized the aesthetics of Post Impressionism, Cubism, Surrealism, New Objectivity and Orphism Born in Quiévy Nord, France in 1882 Herbin studied at the École des Beaux Arts in Lille from 1899 to 1901 before moving to Paris, where he settled permanently His early work experimented with Impressionism, Post Impressionism and Fauvism, in works which debuted at the Salon des Indépendants in 1906 He moved to the Bateau Lavoir studios in 1909 where he became close with Pablo Picasso, Georges Braques Juan Gris, Jean Metzinger and Fernand Léger, which influenced Herbin toward the abstraction of Cubism After World War I, which he spent working in an airplane factory outside of Paris, Herbin began to experiment with figuration according to the principles of New Objectivity, though he quickly abandoned his landscapes and still lives and returned to abstract forms based on the intricacies of nature He cofounded Abstraction Création which aimed to counteract the development of Surrealism, and became increasingly political, publishing statements in Communist journals and later openly criticizing Stalinism in the 1940 s From 1953 until his death seven years later, Herbin was paralyzed on his right side, limiting his ability to work, although he continued to paint with his non dominant, left hand.

Pencil Signed Abstract Geometric Graphic Design Lithograph Print, Bauhaus Artist
By M. Peter Piening
Located in Surfside, FL
M. Peter Piening was born on March 14, 1908 in Grabow, Germany. He began his education at a private school in Italy, studied at the Jesuit school of Kloster Ettal in Bavaria, and attended the German Stettin Gymnasium, where he graduated in 1926. Between 1926 and 1928 Piening studied design at the Bauhaus in Dessau, Germany. There he was taught by multiple famous twentieth-century artists, including Joseph Albers, Paul Klee and Mies van der Rohe. After receiving his master’s degree from the Bauhaus in 1929, Piening enrolled at the University of Berlin and obtained his PhD in philosophy in 1931. Piening spent his early career free-lancing as an illustrator and artist for various publishing companies, eventually settling in Paris to work for Condé-Nast’s French publication of Vogue. In 1934 he moved to the United States to work in Condé-Nast’s New York City office. For the next two decades, Piening worked for many important advertising agencies and magazine publishers, including the N. W. Ayer and J. Walker Thompson agencies and Life and Fortune magazines. As art director for Life in the 1930s and for Fortune in the 1940s, Piening completely redesigned the layout of each magazine. He also redesigned the layouts for thirty-four other major American magazines, including Town & Country and Cosmopolitan. Through his design work, Piening had a great impact on the American public, although the millions who encountered his work most likely never knew his name. Between 1934 and 1964, Piening designed over sixty logos and trademarks for internationally-known products and companies. His most widely-recognized logo may have been the three interlocking rings of Ballantine beer. Piening’s other trademark designs include the Lincoln Zephyr...
