About the Item

YELLOW BOAT is an original hand drawn lithograph by the Egyptian French artist Laurent Marcel Salinas printed using hand lithography techniques on archival printmaking paper 100% acid free. YELLOW BOAT depicts a sandy shoreline with a man leaning on a yellow sailboat, drawn in a simple painterly manner with dab-like strokes in complementary tones of turquoise blue, warm yellow, browns, greens and touches of black and white. Salinas' YELLOW BOAT is an eye-appealing handmade lithograph presenting a classic waterside boat scene with a modern flair. Print size - 21 x 29 inches unframed, very fine condition, pencil signed by Salinas. Edition size - 83 Year published - 1971 Marcel Charles Laurent Salinas 'Marcel Salinas': Born in Egypt, Marcel Charles Laurent Salinas was the son of a French mother and an Italian father. Art was not his first vocation. Salinas studied law in France and practiced this profession for more than a decade. He received his law degree from the University of Aix-en-Provence. While there, he meticulously studied the works of that area's most famous artist, Paul Cezanne. Around 1945 Marcel Salinas abandoned the bar and became a full time artist in Paris. There he studied under the painter and art theorist, Andre Lhote (1885-1962). Shortly thereafter he began exhibiting his art at the Salon des Surindependants, and elsewhere in Paris. In 1955 Marcel Salinas was introduced to lithography and began working as a lithographic printer. Within several years he was considered to be one of the finest printers in Paris and many famous contemporary artists sought his skill and advice. In 1969 Pablo Picasso (1881-1973) asked Salinas to create several lithographs based upon his "Imaginary Portraits" paintings. Picasso was not looking for 'copies' of his portraits but rather for new interpretations of them. For the following three years the two artists worked closely together, creating twenty-nine "Imaginary Portraits" in lithography. Marcel Salinas moved to St. Louis, Missouri, in 1995. Two years later a major retrospective of his paintings, drawings and prints was held in that city at the 20th Century Masters Gallery. Previous one man exhibitions had taken place in Paris, New York, Alexandria and Copenhagen. Marcel Salinas also served as artist-in-residence at the Foundation Francois Desnoyer, France, and at the Paule Mikkelsen Minde Karslov, Denmark.

Extremely poor as a child, he was raised in Hong Kong enduring many hardships amidst a chaotic environment of war and refugee settlements. Wai Ming's love for art flourished and he developed his drawing techniques without any art education, just painting what he saw. In the 1960s, Ming found representation in Hong Kong and also took the unusual step of opening his own gallery to display his work in. His primary interest being to capture images of life in fishing villages, or 'fish-folk', who have retained traditional Chinese culture, his work was at home with the sensibilities of many art buyers in Hong Kong. Crossing the ocean in his mid-30s, Wai Ming arrived in San Francisco from Hong Kong in 1974. There, he experienced initial resistance from galleries and the official art world for a variety of reasons, but was ultimately embraced by dealer Jack Swanson...
