About the Item

Francoise Gilot was a French painter who was the mistress and muse of Pablo Picasso. She met Picasso when she was 21 and he was 61, and despite the age difference, she moved in with him in 1946 and they never married, and she had two children with him. They only stayed together for ten years, and in 1964, she wrote Life With Picasso, a book which Picasso tried to prevent her from publishing. She was influenced by Picasso's work as a Cubist painter, but developed her own style of art; she avoided the sharp edges and angles that Picasso embraced and used organic figures instead. She was art director of the Virginia Woolf Quarterly, and in the 1980's and 90's she designed costumes, sets, and masks for productions at the Guggenheim in New York City. She also married Jonas Salk, the American doctor who pioneered the vaccine for treating polio. The poster is entitled "Springtime" and is based on an oil-on-canvas she did in 1978. The poster here was to promote an art exhibit in Palm Springs and at the Oklahoma Art Center in 1982. The overall size is 35 1/8 x 21 7/8 in. wide and the sight size is 34 1/2 x 21 1/8 in. wide.

Pierre Soulages, Original Stone Lithograph n¨28 by Mourlot, Paris 1970, Signed
By Pierre Soulages
Located in Pasadena, CA
Pierre Soulages Lithographie sur papier Papier: 12.25 x 9.5in Cat Bnf n° 76 Signée au dos a droite, datée 70. Provenance : Collection privée Épreuve parue dans le n. 34 de la revue XXe Siècle. Mourlot, Paris, imprimeur ; XXe Siècle, Paris, éditeur. About Pierre Soulages : Pierre Soulages est né le 24 décembre 1919 à Rodez et décédé le mardi 25 octobre 2022 à l’âge de 102 ans. Il a été inhumé le vendredi 4 novembre au cimetière Montparnasse. Très jeune il est attiré par l’art roman et la préhistoire. Il commence à peindre dans cette province isolée que n’ont pas pénétré les courants artistiques contemporains. À 18 ans, il se rend à Paris pour préparer le professorat de dessin et le concours d’entrée à l’École Nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts. Il y est admis mais convaincu de la médiocrité de l’enseignement qu’on y reçoit refuse d’y entrer et repart aussitôt pour Rodez. Pendant ce bref séjour à Paris il fréquente le musée du Louvre, il voit des expositions de Cézanne et Picasso qui sont pour lui des révélations. Mobilisé en 1940,il sera démobilisé en 1941. Paris occupé, il se rend à Montpellier et fréquente assidûment le musée Fabre. Montpellier à son tour occupé, commence pour lui une période de clandestinité pour échapper au STO pendant laquelle il ne peint plus. Ce n’est qu’en 1946 qu’il peut consacrer tout son temps à la peinture. Il s’installe alors dans la banlieue parisienne. Ses toiles où le noir domine sont abstraites et sombres. Elles sont aussitôt remarquées tant elles diffèrent de la peinture demi-figurative et très colorée de l’après-guerre. Il trouve un atelier à Paris, rue Schoelcher, près de Montparnasse. En 1948, il participe à des expositions à Paris et en Europe, notamment à « Französische abstrakte malerei » dans plusieurs musées allemands. Il est de beaucoup le plus jeune de ce petit groupe de peintres où se trouvent les premiers maîtres de l’art abstrait, Kupka, Domela, Herbin, etc. L’affiche est faite avec une de ses peintures en noir et blanc. 1949, exposition personnelle à Paris, galerie Lydia...
