Artist: George Chemeche – Iraqi/American (1934-2022) Title: Dancing Ducks in Red, Green, Blue, Purple Year: circa 1980 Medium: Screen Print Image size: 19 x 27 inches. Sheet size: 22 x 29 inches. Signature: Signed lower right Edition: 260 This one: 77/260 Condition: Very good Unframed This exceptional geometric abstract serigraph is by the noted Iraqi/American artist George Chemeche (1934-2022 ). He is a master of serigraph printing, but this print has more than technical excellence. It is a wonderful, rhythmic abstract composition. I believe Chemeche might have been a proponent of and/or influenced by the Pattern and Decoration Movement which was happening in New York in the 1970s and 1980s. The print has never been framed and is in very good condition. I will ship the print rolled in a heavyweight tube. George Chemeche was born in 1934 and studied at the Avni Art School in Tel Aviv and the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris. The style with which he is intimately associated, pattern painting, The most serviceable definition is that pattern is the systematic repetition of a motif or motifs used to cover a surface uniformly. The spaces between motifs are either other motifs or are an integral part of the repeat. Usually, patterning intentionally acknowledges the decorative function of art, reconciling both the decorative and the meaningful. George Chemeche’s work hangs in the lobby of the Hotel Chelsea where many have admired it for years. Please search online for more biographical information by this fine artist.

This work is captivating in every sense as it seeks to represent this cylindrical bottle from every angle against a two-dimensional space – as is the goal of most cubist works. It blends into a series of brown, yellow, and black tones that appear to be arranged in a chaotic geometry that continues to make perfect sense to his audience. This is a truly groundbreaking and magnificent still life work of art, whose large scale and grandeur makes this a quintessential Picasso for any art collection. This print was based off of the oil painting of the same name which is housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York), part of the Jacques and Natasha Gelman Collection. Picasso painted the original work in the French Pyrenees town of Céret during the summer of 1911, and is a perfect example of his most abstract phase of Cubism, his "high" Analytic Cubism period. Picasso included lettering in this work, one of the first examples of him doing so. The letters "LETR" possibly refer to "Le Torero," a popular bullfighting magazine at the time, of which Picasso was known to be a fan of. They could also refer to the French word for word, "lettre." Created in c. 1965, this original color lithograph is hand signed by Pablo Picasso (1881 – 1973) in pencil in the lower right margin, and H.C. 6/25 in pencil in the lower left margin, aside from the regular edition of 250. Published by Guy Spitzer, Paris after an original oil on canvas of the same title by Picasso created in 1911. Catalogue Raisonné & COA: Pablo Picasso Bottle...
