Blanche Lazzell Art

American, 1878-1956
One of the earliest and most important female abstract artists in America, Blanche Lazzell is widely regarded for her paintings and innovative color woodblock prints. Works such as Abstract Composition No.6 (1928) and Peace, Joy, Love (1930) clearly demonstrate the influence of Geometric Cubism, a technique to which Lazzell was exposed while studying in Paris with André Lhote, Albert Gleize, and Fernand Léger in the 1920s. Her later works such as Untitled (1952) or Abstract in Blues, Yellow, Red move even further into abstraction. Lazzell is perhaps best remembered today for the more than 138 woodcuts she made using the distinctive “white line” technique developed by Bror Julius Olsson Nordfeldt and the Provincetown Printers. Combining representational and abstract elements in a style uniquely her own, prints such as Provincetown Back Yards. (1927), Marygolds. (1930), and Little Church (1952) are considered definitive examples of the technique.

Fiber Art Collage Israeli Modernist Vibrant Colorful Tapestry Wall Hanging Rug
By Smadar Livne
Located in Surfside, FL
Smadar Livne, an Israeli born artist, is currently living and creating in Owings Mills, Maryland. An award winning artist, she is recognized as one of today’s leading Judaica artists. Educated at Haifa University, Livne has degrees in art, literature, and architecture. She has continued her education of philosophy through Baltimore Hebrew University. Portraying scenes from her life and learning is what gives her work an edge. Livne’s works are vibrant and exciting, and express the joy that Livne sees in life. Not only are the works beautiful, but subtle messages are also painted into each piece, and require time for observation and reflection. Technique sets Livne apart from the rest. Using bold, bright colors and wide strokes, she adds other items in a layering technique. The eye catching result contains layers of paint, fabric, wool and other materials objects, and meaning. Following in the manner of Calman Shemi and before him Kopel Gurwin, Itche Mambush and Georges Goldstein...
