Patrick Caulfield Art

British, 1936-2005
Patrick Joseph Caulfield was born on 29th January, 1936 in Acton, London. He left Acton Secondary Modern at the age of 15, and secured a position as a filing clerk at Crosse and Blackwell, later transferring to the design studio. At 17, he joined the Royal Air Force at RAF Northwood. He attended evening classes at Harrow School of Art (later adopted into the University of Westminster). From 1956-59 he attended the Chelsea School of Art, and from 1960-1963 the Royal College of Art. During his time at the Chelsea School of Art, Caulfield won two prizes, one of which funded a trip to Crete following his graduation. Caulfield was inspired by the Minoan frescoes and the bright colours of Crete. After leaving the Royal College of Art, where his contemporaries had included David Hockney and Allen Jones, he exhibited at the New Generation show at London’s Whitechapel Gallery, where he was recognised for his associations with the pop art movement. Caulfield sought to shrug off this branding, seeing himself as a “formal artist”. Certainly, within a decade, Caulfield had ventured away from pop art associations, incorporating more detailed, realistic elements into his work; After Lunch (1975) is an early example of the realist-figurative style he developed over his career. Caulfield later returned to his earlier, more stripped down style of painting, and often – such as in Still Life: Autumn Fashion – combined elements of the two. Caulfield was nominated for the Turner Prize for his show The Artist’s Eye at the National Gallery in London in 1987. He began to paint to commission around this date; notably designing the stained glass window for The Ivy restaurant, a 12 metre carpet for the British Council’s headquarters in Manchester and set designs for Part Game and Rhapsody at the Royal Opera House. In 1996 his solo gallery at the Claudine Papillon in Paris was highly acclaimed, as was his solo exhibition at the Hayward Gallery in London in 1999. In 1996 he was made a CBE and in 2010, Caulfield was included in an exhibition at the Yale Centre for British Art entitled The Independent Eye: Contemporary British Art from the Collection of Samuel and Gabrielle Lurie. Recent exhibitions have included the 2006 solo exhibition at the Tate Liverpool, the 2006 Special Summer Exhibition show at the Royal Academy (RA) London, and a solo exhibition of his prints at the Alan Cristea Gallery. In 2013 the Tate Britain held an exhibition featuring work from throughout his career. His work is collected in the British Council, London Tate Gallery, Victoria and Albert Museum, Dallas Museum of Art, Harry N Abrams Collection in New York and the National Gallery of Australia, among others.

1970's Large Silkscreen Abstract Geometric Day Glo Serigraph Pop Art Print Neon
By Chryssa Vardea-Mavromichali
Located in Surfside, FL
Silkscreen on Arches paper, Hand signed and Numbered in Pencil. Serigraph in white, back, blue gray (silver). Chryssa Vardea-Mavromichali (Greek: Χρύσα Βαρδέα-Μαυρομιχάλη; December 31, 1933 – December 23, 2013) was a Greek American artist who worked in a wide variety of media. An American art pioneer in light art and luminist sculpture widely known for her neon, steel, aluminum and acrylic glass installations, she has always used the mononym Chryssa professionally. She worked from the mid-1950s in New York City studios and worked since 1992 in the studio she established in Neos Kosmos, Athens, Greece. Chryssa was born in Athens into the famous Mavromichalis family from the Mani Peninsula. one of her sisters, who studied medicine, was a friend of the poet and novelist Nikos Kazantzakis. Chryssa began painting during her teenage years and also studied to be a social worker.In 1953, on the advice of a Greek art critic, her family sent her to Paris to study at the Académie de la Grande Chaumiere where Andre Breton, Edgard Varese, and Max Ernst were among her associates and Alberto Giacometti was a visiting professor. In 1954, at age twenty-one, Chryssa sailed for the United States, arrived in New York and went to San Francisco, California to study at the California School of Fine Arts. Returning to New York in 1955, she became a United States citizen and established a studio in the city. Chryssa's first major work was The Cycladic Books preceded American minimalism by seventeen years. 1961, Chryssa's first solo exhibition was mounted at The Guggenheim. 1963, Chryssa's work was shown at the Museum of Modern Art in curator Dorothy Canning Miller's Americans 1963 exhibition. The artists represented in the show also included Richard Anuszkiewicz, Lee Bontecou, Robert Indiana, Richard Lindner, Marisol, Claes Oldenburg, Ad Reinhardt, James Rosenquist and others. 1966, The Gates to Times Square, regarded as "one of the most important American sculptures of all time" and "a thrilling homage to the living American culture of advertising and mass communications." The work is a 10 ft cube installation of two huge letter 'A's through which visitors may walk into "a gleaming block of stainless steel and Plexiglas that seems to quiver in the play of pale blue neon light" which is controlled by programmed timers. First shown in Manhattan's Pace Gallery, it was given to the Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo, New York in 1972. 1972, The Whitney Museum of American Art mounted a solo exhibition of works by Chryssa. That's All (early 1970s), the central panel of a triptych related to The Gates of Times Square, was acquired by the Museum of Modern Art between 1975 and 1979. 1973, Chryssa's solo exhibition at the Gallerie Denise René was reviewed for TIME magazine by art critic Robert Hughes before it went on to the Galleries Denise René in Düsseldorf and Paris. Other works by Chryssa in composite honeycomb aluminum and neon in the 1980s and 1990s include Chinatown, Siren, Urban Traffic, and Flapping Birds. Chryssa 60/90 retrospective exhibition in Athens in the Mihalarias Art Center. After her long absence from Greece, a major exhibition including large aluminum sculptures - cityscapes, "neon boxes" from the Gates to the Times Square, paintings, drawings etc. was held in Athens. In 1992, after closing her SoHo studio, which art dealer Leo Castelli had described as "one of the loveliest in the world," Chryssa returned to Greece. She found a derelict cinema which had become a storeroom stacked with abandoned school desks and chairs, behind the old Fix Brewery near the city center in Neos Kosmos, Athens. Using the desks to construct enormous benches, she converted the space into a studio for working on designs and aluminum composite honeycomb sculptures...

The High Cost Of Free Speech Shepard Fairey Print Signed & Numbered Politics
By Shepard Fairey
Located in Draper, UT
Punk rock ignited a lot of creative and philosophical things for me, and punk principles continuously remind me that speaking truth to power and questioning authority is paramount in life. The Dead Kennedys, The Clash, Black Flag, and the Circle Jerks are just a few of the groups that referenced injustices such as police brutality and abuse of power in their songs, inspiring me to speak out about the same subjects through my art. I have made a lot of lasting friendships through punk rock and its cultural offshoots. One of those friends is Sean Bonner, who began ordering my prints in the '90s while he was art director for punk label Victory Records. Sean designed the package for the Bad Brains...
