Stamped, verso, with certification of authenticity for 'Marion Cunningham' (American, 1908-1948) and created in 1948. Paper dimensions: 17.75 x 16 inches A substantial and rare, mid-century silkscreen showing a Hawaiian family seated beneath a traditional tent of tapa cloth and being served poi by a young woman. To realize this complex work, Cunningham used as many as one dozen hand-drawn screens, each of which varied in pigment, hue and opacity.

She subsequently furthered her studies at the California School of the Fine Arts and at the Art Students League in New York City, where she met and married the American abstract artist Ben Cunningham.

Stamped with Certification of Authenticity verso for Marion Osborn Cunningham (American, 1908-1948), titled 'Fisherman Casting' and created in 1948. (Paper dimensions: 12.5 x 11 inches.) A lyrical and intricately detailed, figurative serigraph by this innovative, mid-century graphic artist. The central simplicity of the iconic composition is belied by its technical complexity. To realize this ambitious work, Cunningham employed as many as one dozen, hand-drawn silkscreen layers, each varying in pigment, hue and opacity. Created during the unprecedented creative ferment that characterized the last year of her life, this work represents a visionary achievement for both the artist and the medium.
