Ossip Zadkine Art

Ossip Zadkine was a relentless, unclassifiable and prolific artist. Today, we can count more than 612 sculptures and a large number of works on paper; 765 gouaches and drawings, as well as 200 lithographs and etchings. The exhibition of his works in his Parisian studio of the rue Rousselet on May 20th, 1920, marked the beginning of a long series of shows, including more than 105 solo exhibitions during his lifetime in Europe; but also, in the United States and in Japan. Truly, a man of the world, Zadkine lived in Vitebsk, Belarus, Sunderland and London in England and Paris, Bruniquel, Les Arques in France. During the First World War, he enlisted voluntarily and was posted to the Russian ambulance corps in Champagne in 1916. During the Second World War, he fled to New York City and lived there from October 1941 to September 1945. Zadkine also traveled to many places including Belgium, the Netherlands, Greece, Italy, Japan, America, amongst others. Zadkine collaborated with many people on diverse occasions. He collaborated with architects such as Adrien Blomme, Joseph André and Hugh Maaskant; decorators such as Marc du Plantier and André Groult; poets such as Claude Aveline, Robert Ganzo, Pierre Béarn and others.  Zadkine was close to such important individuals as artists (Marc Chagall, Henry Moore, Tsuguharu Foujita, Amedeo Modigliani and others; thinkers, founders, collectors, doctors, industrialists, businessmen worldwide. He gathered his memoirs in his book, Le Maillet et le Ciseau, which he started writing in 1962.

Lithograph Belgian American Surrealism WPA Modernist Karl Fortess Surrealist Art
Located in Surfside, FL
Karl Eugene Fortess (1907-1993) Original color lithographs on BFK Rives paper, 1966, Hand signed and numbered 29/36 in pencil, Sheet size 20.5 x 15 inches. Karl E. Fortess (1907-1993) was a painter, printmaker and teacher, of Boston, Massachusetts and Woodstock, N.Y. Fortess was born in Antwerp, Belgium on October 13, 1907, and became an American citizen in 1923. He studied at the Art Institute of Chicago, the Art Students League in New York, and the Woodstock School of Painting with Yasuo Kuniyoshi. In 1937 the Works Progress Administration sent him and several other artists to Alaska to document the towns, villages, and remote wilderness landscapes (Pemberton, “Alaska art museum collects WPA’s Depression works from the territory,” Columbia Daily Tribune, November 9, 2003). Trains, trucks, and industrial buildings were what Karl Fortess envisioned when the Public Works of Art Project suggested that he depict “the American Scene.” His work bears the influence of Surrealism, Russsian Constructivist art and Cubism. He was part of a circle of left leaning artists loosley involved with the WPA which included Sol Wilson, Isaac Soyer, Louis Lozowick, Abraham Harriton, Ben Shahn, William Gropper, Nahum Tschacbasov, Morris Shulman, Yasuo Kuniyoshi, Louis Slobodkin, Adolf Dehn, Le Corbusier and Louis Schanker. Karl Fortress taught at the Art Students League, Brooklyn Museum Art School, Louisiana State University, Fort Wright College, and Boston University School of Fine and Applied Arts. He was a member of the Artists Equity Association, Society of American Graphic Artists, American Association of University Professors, and the British Film Institute. He was awarded the Guggenheim Fellowship in 1946, was named an Associate of the National Academy of Design in 1960 and elected to full Academician in 1971. Fortess taught at many different schools, including Boston University School of Fine Art, where he also created an archive of interviews with more than two hundred and fifty contemporary American painters, sculptors, and graphic artists including many with with artists associated with the Woodstock, N.Y. art community. Among the interviewees are Kenneth Armitage, Will Barnet, Romare Bearden, George Biddle, James Brooks, Adolph Dehn, Jane Freilicher, Julian Levi, Alice Neel, Larry Rivers, Moses Soyer, Dorothy Varian...
