About the Artist:
José Luis Cuevas is a Mexican artist who worked primarily with etchings, illustrations, sculptures, and paintings, though he is perhaps best known for his drawings. According to Cuevas, “perhaps because I was born in a paper mill and pencil factory, paper has always had a great fascination for me.” He briefly attended the eminent Mexican institution Escuela de Pintura, however Cuevas considers himself a self-taught draughtsman in search of an alternative to the Mexican Muralists and their social messages. For Cuevas, his drawings represent the isolation of man and an inability to communicate, many of his drawings featuring distorted human figures and figures transformed into animals. His work was inspired by the graphic styles of Francisco de Goya, Pablo Picasso, and José Guadalupe Posada...

Reflections I
Located in Toronto, Ontario
Caviar20 is excited to be offering this evocative print by the inimitable Louise Nevelson - one of the most revered and unique sculptors of the 20th century.
Nevelson is renowned for her mysterious and complex artworks. She was an active printmaker, experimenting with different techniques and approaches while working with some of the best print-making studios in the United States.
Nevelson, whether working in sculpture or in two dimensions typically had a strict palette; almost exclusively black. While there are iconic works in white, gold, or raw wood, Nevelson almost entirely avoids color. However, during the last decade of her life, her palette expands notably with her printmaking.
"Reflections I" is an example from her 1983 portfolio, "Reflections I-V" consisting of six large-scale prints. These prints contain signature elements found throughout Nevelson's prints; ripped or collage-like forms as well as the use of fabric, lace, and toile in the printing process. However one of the strongest characteristics of the "Reflections" series is her new uninhibited use of color.
Here it is used to maximum effect. This work features unexpected elements of crimson and translucent rose and Prussian blue that punctuate her signature layered collage-like composition. Nevelson's late prints are truly some of her best.
Over the last few years, there has been tremendous momentum in both interest and appreciation of Nevelson's work. In May of 2021, a new auction record of $1.35 million was established for one of Nevelson's signature white construction sculptures...

Beat Artist "Double Witness" Lithograph Etching Lakeside Studio Chicago
Located in Surfside, FL
Will Petersen, a painter, master printer and a poet, was born in
Chicago. (Amer. 1928-1994) created this limited edition Etching on Arches paper at
the Lakeside Studio.
The LITHOGRAPH PRINT is from a limited edition of 25 (Roman Numerals),
printed in black on Arches Cover White (archival paper).
with chopmarks and blindstamps. published by The Lakeside Studio
(chopmark lower right). THE LITHOGRAPH IS SIGNED TITLED AND ANNOTATED
BY THE ARTIST in pencil EXCELLENT condition.
Will's formal art education began with classes at the Chicago Academy
of Fine Arts. As a student at the city's Steinmetz High School,
Petersen succeeded Hugh Hefner (of Playboy magazine fame) as the HS
newspaper cartoonist, the Steinmetz Star. During this time, Petersen
recovered from polio.
In 1947 Petersen enrolled at Chicago's Wilbur Wright College. While
there, he painted with oils for the first time. Two years later he
enrolled at Michigan State University where he developed a strong
interest in literature and writing and began printmaking. By 1951 he
had begun to exhibit paintings and prints nationally. A year later he
completed his master's degree.
Petersen served in the United States Army from 1952-54, spending one
year as an education specialist in Japan. This encounter with the
Japanese culture affected his entire life. He became interested in
calligraphy and Noh, classical Japanese Buddhist performance that
combines elements of drama, music and poetry. Upon completion of his
military service in Japan in 1955, Will Petersen settled in Oakland,
California, where he met some of the most active poets of the Beat
Generation: Gary Snyder, Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac, Phil Whalen,
Mike McClure and others. Petersen was attracted to the group by their
intelligence and belief in Zen Buddhism.
In 1956 in his small studio in Oakland, he printed the poems of Jack
Kerouac. He attended for the first time, the reading of Ginsberg's
Howl at Six Gallery. His relationship with Gary Snyder had begun when
both were in Kyoto, Japan; later Snyder wrote for the Plucked Chicken.
Petersen returned to Japan in 1957, pursuing painting, printmaking and
writing for eight years while living in Kyoto. In 1965 he accepted a
faculty appointment at Ohio State University, teaching drawing,
painting and printmaking. Four years later Petersen took his teaching
skills to West Virginia University in Morgantown, where he
concentrated on printmaking. He taught there until 1977 when he began
publishing Plucked Chicken, a journal of art and poetry. In 1978 in
Morgantown, Petersen and his wife, Cynthia Archer, established Plucked
Chicken Press, which they later moved to Chicago and then Evanston.
Petersen operated the Press until his death on April 1, 1994.
From 1955-57 Petersen along with Mel Strawn founded the Bay Printmakers Society.

Cleve Gray (1918 – 2004) was an American Abstract expressionist painter, who was also associated with Color Field painting and Lyrical Abstraction.
Gray was born Cleve Ginsberg, the family changed their name to Gray in 1936. Gray attended the Ethical Culture School in New York City (1924–1932). From the age of 11 until the age of 14 he had his first formal art training with Antonia Nell, who had been a student of George Bellows. From 15 to 18 he attended the Phillips Academy, in Andover, Massachusetts; where he studied painting with Bartlett Hayes and won the Samuel F. B. Morse Prize for most promising art student. In 1940 he graduated from Princeton University summa cum laude, with a degree in Art and Archeology. He was a member of Phi Beta Kappa. At Princeton he studied painting with James C. Davis and Far Eastern Art with George Rowley, under whose supervision he wrote his thesis on Yuan dynasty landscape painting. Best known for his calligraphic abstractions which melded elements of Abstract Expressionism, Color Field painting, and traditional Chinese scroll painting. After graduation in 1941 Gray moved to Tucson, Arizona. In Arizona he exhibited his modernist landscape paintings and still lifes at the Alfred Messer Studio Gallery in Tucson. In 1942 he returned to New York and joined the United States Army. During World War II, he served in the signal intelligence service in Britain, France and Germany, where he rose to the rank of sergeant. After the liberation of Paris he was the first American GI to greet Pablo Picasso and Gertrude Stein. He began informal art training with the French artists André Lhote and Jacques Villon, continuing his art studies in Paris after the war. Gray returned to the United States in 1946. In 1949 he moved to the house his parents had owned on a 94-acre property in Warren, Connecticut, and lived there for the rest of his life. In the 1960s he formed a close friendship with Barnett Newman. It was during this time that he experienced an artistic metamorphosis, dissolving his earlier cubist compositions in a sea of distilled color. This dramatic body of work marked the beginning of an artistic meditation that would last for over 40 years. The rigors of French modernism, the ethos of Abstract Expressionism and the meditative restraint of Chinese and Japanese scroll painting commingle with astounding affect. The atmospheric, subdued tones of his 1960s paintings gradually gave way to bright, monochromatic fields of color, hazily washed onto the canvas in stain like swathes. Much of his work from the last three decades of his career feature striking graphic brushwork that conjures the influence of Japanese and Chinese calligraphy. He married the noted author Francine du Plessix on April 23, 1957. They worked in separate studios in two outbuildings with a driveway in between. Gray was a veteran of scores of exhibitions throughout his career, as listed below, from the early days Tucson, through to postwar Paris and New York, and most recently in 2002 at the Berry-Hill Gallery in New York City. His paintings are held in the collections of numerous prominent museums and institutions. In 2009 the art critic Karen Wilkin curated a posthumous retrospective of his work at the Boca Raton Museum of Art, Florida, and other posthumous exhibitions have been held.
