Waterline Fine Art, Austin, TX is pleased to present the following work: Oil, pastel, and paper collage on canvas. Signed and dated verso. 52.75 x 47.75 in. 54 x 49 in. (framed) Gilded floater frame. Provenance Compass Rose, Chicago Born Sylvan Irwin Goldberg in 1924 and raised in the Bronx, Michael Goldberg was an important figure in American Abstract Expressionism, who began taking art classes at the Art Students League in 1938. A gifted student, Goldberg finished high school at the age of 14 and enrolled in City College. He soon found New York’s jazz scene to be a more compelling environment, and he began skipping classes in favor of the Harlem jazz clubs near campus. Goldberg’s love of jazz would become a lifelong passion and a key component to his approach to composition in his paintings. From 1940 to 1942, like many of the leading artists of the New York School, Goldberg studied with Hans Hofmann. In 1943, he put his pursuit of painting on hold and enlisted in the U.S. Army. Serving in North Africa, Burma, and India, Goldberg received a Purple Heart and a Bronze Star before being discharged in 1946. After his service, he traveled and worked in Venezuela before returning to the United States, settling back in New York and resuming studies with Hofmann and at the Art Students League. Living downtown and frequenting the Cedar Bar, Goldberg befriended many of the artists of the New York School. In 1951, his work was included in the groundbreaking Ninth Street Show, co-organized by Leo Castelli, Conrad Marca-Relli, and the Eighth Street Club, and featuring the work of - among others - Hofmann, Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, and Franz Kline. In 1953, the Tibor de Nagy...

This striking 1970 mixed media work on paper by Léon Levkovitch presents a dense, expressionist gathering of fragmented human figures against a charcoal-grey ground. Elongated faces, angular bodies and overlapping limbs create an enigmatic composition that evokes ancient ritual, archaic sculpture and the psychological intensity of post-war European figurative art. The palette combines smoky black, charcoal, warm ochre, muted yellow, chalky white and delicate accents of pink, rust and pale blue. Rapid linear marks intersect with translucent washes and irregular areas of pigment, giving the surface a raw, tactile quality. The figures appear simultaneously human, sculptural and symbolic, their simplified anatomies recalling ancient Mediterranean civilizations rather than conventional naturalistic representation. Levkovitch's fascination with Etruscan art provides a meaningful context for understanding this work. Although the composition is not a literal archaeological reconstruction, its hieratic figures and compressed spatial arrangement suggest an imaginative dialogue with archaic visual traditions. The work also reflects the expressive figuration associated with the École de Paris. For collectors of mid-century French art, European expressionism and figurative works on paper, this signed composition offers an evocative example of Levkovitch's distinctive artistic language. TECHNICAL DETAILS Technique : Mixed media on paper Date : 1970 Dimensions : 29 × 42 cm (11.42 × 16.54 in) Framed dimensions : 40 × 50 cm (15.75 × 19.69 in) Signature : Signed lower right ABOUT THE ARTIST Léon Levkovitch (1936–2025) was a Polish-born artist who settled in Paris in 1961. He graduated from the State Higher School of Fine Arts in Łódź in 1960, where he studied under Zdzisław Głowacki. In 1970, he furthered his training in lithography at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris. Working across painting, drawing and sculpture, Levkovitch developed a distinctive visual language combining expressive figuration, symbolic imagery and richly textured surfaces. His artistic approach reflects the international environment of the École de Paris, while drawing on historical and mythological subjects and the visual traditions of ancient civilizations. Etruscan art was a particularly important influence on his sculptural practice. The stylized figures, archaic forms and deliberate disregard for conventional proportions found in his work reveal an interest in the expressive power of ancient imagery rather than classical naturalism. He also explored mixed techniques, combining painting and drawing with engraved details and subtle relief effects. Levkovitch exhibited from the early 1960s onwards, with a career that developed in France and subsequently extended to Poland and other international contexts. His work occupies an individual position within postwar European figurative art, bringing together ancient references and a personal, tactile approach to representation.
