Otto Neals Art

b. 1930

Otto Neals is an African-American painter and sculptor, originally from South Carolina, USA. When he was four years old, his family left the South and settled in Brooklyn, New York, where he still resides. All of Neals’s schooling was in Brooklyn, where he studied commercial art at George Westinghouse Vocational High School. He describes himself as a self-taught artist, although he studied briefly at the Brooklyn Museum Art School, with Isaac Soyer and printmaking, at the Bob Blackburn Printmaking Workshop, with Krishna Reddy, Mohammed Khalil and Roberto DeLomanica. He was introduced to stone carving by sculptor, Vivian Schuyler Key, who presented him with his first set of stone carving tools. The Prospect Park Alliance and Ezra Jack Keats Foundation commissioned him, in 1995, to create a bronze sculpture, titled, Peter and Willie, based on the works of author and illustrator, Keats. For this work, which is located in the Imagination Playground, in Prospect Park, Mr. Neals was presented with the New York City Arts Commission’s Award for Excellence in Design. His artwork has been exhibited at the Columbia Museum of Art, the Huntsville Museum of Art, the Ghana National Museum, the Library of Congress, the Smithsonian Institution and the collections of Congressman John Lewis, jazz musician Randy Weston, actor/singer Harry Bellafonte and Oprah Winfrey.

Kenneth Miller Adams “Card Players” Signed Lithograph, 1959

By Kenneth Miller Adams

Located in Denver, CO

A compelling mid-century American Regionalist lithograph by Kenneth Miller Adams (1897–1966), titled Card Players and created circa 1959. This expressive figurative print depicts a group of men gathered around a table during a card game, capturing a quiet moment of concentration, camaraderie and everyday American life. Adams uses strong draftsmanship, expressive line and a carefully structured composition to give the intimate interior scene a distinctive sense of character and atmosphere. The figures are arranged around the central table, creating a tightly composed image in which gesture, posture and interaction become as important as the subject itself. Card Players exemplifies Adams's connection to American Regionalism and modern American figurative art, movements that often celebrated ordinary people, working life and distinctly American settings. His approach combines observational realism with a simplified, graphic quality particularly well suited to the lithographic medium. Kenneth Miller Adams was an important figure in the Taos and New Mexico art communities. Born in Kansas, he studied at the Art Institute of Chicago and the Art Students League in New York before traveling in Europe. Encouraged by fellow artist Andrew Dasburg, Adams moved to Taos in 1924 and remained there for twelve years. He became the youngest and last member of the Taos Society...
