About the Item

R. C. Gorman is better known for his images of colorful and elegant Navajo figures. This pair of prints, however, offers a view into his personal life. The pair of nude figures in this pendant pair are of his boyfriend Bart, and himself represented as the woman. Thus, the erotic nature of the images shows an insight not just into his sexuality, but also into his conception of gender. 26.13 x 22.38 inches, each frame 16.5 x 13 inches, each artwork Each signed and dated in pencil, lower left Each inscribed 'Presentation Proof' in pencil, lower right (for the edition of 40) Framed to conservation standards using 100 percent rag matting, and housed in a toned silver gilded moulding Each artwork in excellent condition. Some abrasions on mouldings. "I was born near Canyon de Chelly in Arizona and spent my early years living close to nature and Navajo tradition. My family was rich in artistic talent and creative spirit, but not in material possessions. I have been fortunate to live and work in the beautiful Taos Valley, an environment also rich in artistry and tradition. The spirit of Taos has encouraged and inspired me, and my focus as an artist matured here. I’m truly grateful to my friends, drinking buddies, family, patrons, and my loyal staff—all of whom have made my way of life here possible. Thanks for sharing the light." - R.C. Gorman in 1998

'Four Figures' Charcoal drawing, signature stamped lower left
By Sylvia Spicuzza
Located in Milwaukee, WI
Art: 11"x15" Paper: 12"x16" Frame: 20 1/2"x24 1/2" Charcoal drawing, signature stamped lower left Born in 1908, Sylvia Spicuzza was the daughter of noted painter Francesco Spicuzza. Sylvia devoted herself to teaching art to the students of Lake Bluff Elementary School in Shorewood, WI. During this time Sylvia produced a magnificent body of work that was undiscovered until her death. Sylvia's work is rich, diverse and fascinating collection of drawings, watercolors and prints from the 1920's to the 1990's. Her style ranges from early figurative drawings to regionalism, art deco, lyrical abstractions of every conceivable subject (both real and imagined), as well as figurative paintings that reflect the work of Picasso and Ernest Max in the 1930's and 1940's. Biomorphic and organic, Modernist images are presented with Sylvia Spicuzza's own unique sense of style, humor and fantasy. Exhibitions David Barnett Gallery...
