Howard Behrens Furniture
American, 1933-2014
Howard Behrens was born in Chicago, Illinois in 1933. He earned a master's degree in painting & sculpture from the University of Maryland, College Park. He developed a method for creation that combined travel, sketching, fine art photography and painting. Behrens' style got thicker and thicker and heavier and heavier with the use of his palette knife. Eventually, he said of his artwork being a creation of paintings that integrate what he calls, "big, juicy chunks of paint." He died in 2014 after a long struggle with Parkinson's disease.to

Michael Bauer Baba Creme Limited Edition Print
By Phaidon
Located in New York, NY
Print
Full bleed six-color silkscreen printed on Letra Ecru 300 gsm
Measures: 34.00 x 24.50 in
86.4 x 62.2 cm
Edition of 50
This work is signed and numbered by the artist on recto.
The imagery for this edition is derived in part from what Michael Bauer calls his “telephone drawings”—quick, loose sketches made while talking on the phone or otherwise distracted. Bauer saves these doodles, no matter how rough or silly, and uses them as raw materials to be copied, scanned, altered, and combined. Bauer often works in series, making groups of paintings that metaphorically “talk back” to one another while simultaneously standing on their own as individual works. As he says, “Every painting that I do relies on the last twenty I did.” In a neat literalization of his process, this print includes the words “baba” and “creme,” recurring terms Bauer uses as verbal readymades for their phonetic qualities and mutable meanings.
The amorphic, animalistic forms of German painter Michael Bauer are built upon color washes, meandering lines, and bulbous protrusions. Utilizing a variety of rendering techniques and materials, including pointillism, text and high-chroma colors, Bauer transforms his free-form compositions into dynamic and ornamented abstractions. He borrows from the colorful tradition of Modernist composition, juxtaposing collaged cutouts with a bevy of 20th century painting methodologies—including Cubist, Pop, and Surrealist techniques—to make the swirling paintings...
