About the Item

Robert Gordy was an iconic New Orleans painter. He was part of the "Art and Decoration" movement that also included Keith Haring . This is a classic style for Gordy - the nudes, the geometric forms - a really good one, with great colors.
Proudly presented by Guy Lyman Fine Art, New Orleans, with our firm guarantee of satisfaction.
Robert Gordy bio
Balancing a clean, formal graphic approach with creativity, wit and verve, Robert Gordy created a style of painting that is instantly recognizable to anyone even vaguely familiar with his work. Sometimes placed in a category with Keith Haring, he created images that exploited patterns and simplicity of form. He had a wonderful sense of color as well.
Gordy’s artmaking
Robert Gordy was unusual in his frequent use of markers, pens and ink to create his images – which are so clean that they look to a contemporary eye to be machine or computer-created. He was enraptured with print-making, and produced many limited-edition print series’. Robert Gordy’s works are in museums worldwide, including the Whitney, MoMA, the Smithsonian and other top-tier institutions.
The screen print still has a label on back, as shown, from the prestigious New Orleans gallery Simonne Stern, and yes, you can see its price from the 1980s (but sorry, I paid $600 for it at auction in 2020 so you cannot have it for that 30-something year-old price! I have to make at least a small profit after what I paid plus the other costs are taken out)! Gordy screen prints are unmistakable in their style - you know the artist in an instant.

- "Arrow" (Signed, Dated by Rauschenberg) Framed Modern 20th Century Pop Art PrintBy (After) Robert RauschenbergLocated in New Orleans, LAProtean American artist Robert Rauschenberg, certainly among the top 5 greatest American artists of the second half of the 20th century (to me, the greatest), could do almost anything. But he was perhaps best known for his print work, which increasingly engaged him over the years and became his primary passion and skill. This is a classic collage-style Rauschenbergian offset lithograph, combining random images in a carefully orchestrated way. It's pencil-signed and dated '83 by Rauschenberg...Category
