Robert Danner
'Glass as Art, Glass is Art' original serigraph poster signed by Robert Danner

1981

About the Item

This colorful poster was produced for a 1981 exhibition at the Lincoln Center for the Arts in Milwaukee, celebrating glass art. The image is dominated by the exhibition title 'GLASS AS ART GLASS IS ART,' repeated throughout a landscape like space: the phrase is repeated in the sky and into the ground below. It also sits on the horizon line, filled with a rainbow gradient, and melts like river streams int the foreground and eventually breaking into glittering stars. Seeing this print in person, the viewer can appreciate the thickness of the ink as it is layered upon itself. 24 x 28.88 inches, artwork 25.25 x 30.5 inches, frame Signed in pencil, lower right Edition 25/50 in pencil, lower center Framed in an aluminium moulding Wisconsin Artist, Milwaukee based printmaker, potter, and stained glass artist Robert 'Bob' Danner is a versatile Milwaukee-based artist whose prolific output and paradoxical combination of fluidity and maniacal love of precision and detail has allowed him to excel in a variety of mediums including stain glass, photography, ceramics, pottery, and fine prints. His collected works are a panoply of objects including ceramic trophies for winners of the Arlington Million, artistic magazine cover shots, illustrated children's books, abstract and representative stain-glass pieces, and Mask (Who Meeeeee?), a screen print and lithograph composition that is in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Danner also uses his skills as an artist in residence for Roosevelt Middle School of the Arts in Milwaukee. At this school and others, Danner has guided countless children in the creation of individual works of art and large-scale installations.

"Casa Marquez" original woodcut print signed by Carol Summers
By Carol Summers
Located in Milwaukee, WI
"Casa Marquez" is an excellent example of the printmaking of Carol Summers. In the image, Summers has featured a Spanish Renaissance building, replete with classical architecture - ionic pilasters and roman arches over glazed windows that reflect the landscape like a pair of eyes. In the far distance is a red sunset over the Mediterranean sea. This interest in classical subject matter is common of modern artists: both Picasso and Giorgio de Chirico looked to classical themes throughout their careers, abstracting Greek and Roman architecture and narratives to characterize the instability of modernity. Summers certainly does the same here by warping and tilting what should be a stable stone structure. The drama of Summer's representation of the villa is enhanced by his signature printmaking technique, which allows the ink from the woodblock to seep through the paper, blurring the edges of each form. The title of the print refers to the author Gabriel García Márquez, known for such novels as One Hundred Years of Solitude...
