About the Item

Print size - 29.25 x 20 inches, unframed, full bleed image, fine impression printed from hand drawn lithography plates one color at a time in shades of gray, pink and black, printed text reads "ART EXPO 1984" and "Kaitz "printed in opaque white ink on image top and bottom. About the artist - Born in Brooklyn in 1913, the son of Eastern European Jewish immigrants, Gustave Kaitz started painting professionally as a young man selling his Art Deco originals to Gimbel’s and Fortunoff department stores, and Greenwich Village galleries. Gustave studied painting at the School of Art at Cooper Union and philosophy at Brooklyn College. By the age of twenty two, the young artist was proprietor of his own studio in Manhattan. Through the years both disciplines – art and philosophy – guided his work and his heart. Kaitz developed a unique style of painting, his art taking on untried visions through his conceptual Deco works of the times, employing mixed media of water colors, pastels and pencil, painted on board. "I recall vividly the movement of the Deco years. They were years masked in the innocence of an unsophisticated generation, a generation in revolt against man’s excessive rationality. Romanticized by the Deco movement, the twenties and thirties will ever be remembered for a period that introduced illusion and spirit into modernism, opening new vistas in the evolution of art." – Kaitz
