Walpi #4 Watercolor Mixed Media Landscape, Semi-Abstract, 20th Century
Located in Denver, CO
Walpi #4 is an original semi-abstract Southwestern landscape by German-American modernist Bert Van Bork (1928–2014). Executed in watercolor and mixed media, this intimate yet powerful composition captures the dramatic beauty of a Native American pueblo village atop First Mesa, Arizona—an area long associated with the Hopi people and their enduring cultural heritage. With a vibrant palette of deep blues, luminous yellows, warm oranges, and expressive pinks, Van Bork transforms adobe structures and desert sky into a dynamic interplay of color and form. The semi-abstract treatment merges architectural geometry with expressive linework, reflecting both the grandeur of the Southwestern landscape and the spiritual resonance of the land. His reverence for Native American culture is evident in the sensitive balance between abstraction and representation. The artwork is presented in a custom white frame with archival mounting materials and UV-protective glass for long-term preservation. Framed dimensions measure 8 ½ x 10 ½ x ½ inches, with an image size of 4 ¾ x 7 inches—an ideal scale for collectors of refined works on paper or thoughtfully curated salon-style installations. Provenance: Estate of Bert Van Bork, Evanston, Illinois. Van Bork was born in Germany and trained in Berlin under Karl Schmidt-Rottluff, a founding member of Die Brücke. He was active in the post-war German art scene before immigrating to the United States in 1954. In addition to his achievements as a painter and printmaker, he gained international recognition for his documentary filmmaking, including the Academy Award–nominated EyeWitness The Legacy of Death Camp Art...

NYC Watercolor Drawing American Modern 20th Century Modernism Mid-Century WPA
By David Fredenthal
Located in New York, NY
NYC Watercolor Drawing American Modern 20th Century Modernism Mid-Century WPA. David Fredenthal (1914-1958) "View of New York from New Jersey,"7 x 10 inches. Watercolor on Paper, c. 1948. Signed lower right. David Fredenthal (1914 - 1958) was one ot America's most respected watercolor artists. He was famous for his bold, intensely vigorous and complex paintings and drawings that expressed his deep feeling for excitement with life and living. He was a draftsman with seemingly a special gift for catching anything, physically and emotionally on the spot, and he never went anywhere without three or four loaded pens and a sketchbook in his pocket. As part of the WPA project he executed a number of murals including the Sports Pavilion on the Heinz Building of the New York World's Fair 1939. Some of his fresco and mural techniques were inspired by his friendship with Diego Rivera who had admired and encouraged him in the early 1930's. After he won a traveling scholarship to Europe from The Museum of Modern Art at age 19, he was the recipient of two Guggenheim grants in Painting. He had his first solo exhibition at the Downtown Gallery in New York in 1937 at age 23, and many others after that including the Whitney Museum of American Art in 1947. Because of Fredenthal's prodigious drawing gifts, he was chosen by Erskine Caldwell to illustrate his novel "Tobacco Road...
