Ward Lockwood Paintings

1894-1963

Born in Kansas, Ward Lockwood studied at the University of Kansas from 1912–14. Following that, he attended the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts until 1916. Like many other artists at the time, he took a brief hiatus from his studies to begin a two-year enlistment in the Army during World War I. His time in the service allowed him to experience European cultures first hand. Lockwood was deeply impacted in France by the works of artists Paul Cezanne and Vincent Van Gogh. In 1921, after his release from the service, he returned to Paris to study at the Académie Ranson. In Paris, he met fellow Kansan, Kenneth Adams. The two artists then traveled the French countryside, practising their craft. In 1922, Lockwood's fascination with French culture was satiated as he returned to Kansas to work as a commercial artist.

By 1926, Lockwood had married Clyde Bonebrake. The newlyweds quickly settled in Taos, New Mexico, due to the encouragement of Kenneth Adams. Lockwood soon established himself as a member of the Taos Society of Artists. To generate greater financial stability, Lockwood did a variety of murals for the Federal Arts Project and went on to teach at the Broadmoor Academy in Colorado Springs. At this time, he taught painting and lithography and worked on Works Progress Administration murals with his mentor, Andrew Dasburg. In 1938, due to his continuous development as an artist and professor, he was awarded the chair of the department of art at the University of Texas in Austin. During the 1950s, he taught at the University of California at Berkeley and the University of Kansas at Lawrence. In 1940, he moved to San Francisco and experimented with abstraction and assemblage but was again in the Army during World War II, advancing to the rank of colonel. After he completed his time in the service, he returned to California where he resumed teaching. Although he was highly involved in the art circles of California, Lockwood made frequent trips to Taos and finally settled there in his later years.

Ward Lockwood “Web” 1950s Abstract Mixed Media Painting, Taos Modernist

By Ward Lockwood

Located in Denver, CO

“Web” is an original 1950s abstract mixed media painting by important American modernist and New Mexico artist Ward Lockwood (1894–1963). Signed by the artist at the lower right, the composition combines casein and India ink in a sophisticated palette of brown, blue, white, and black. Interwoven lines, organic forms, and layered shapes create a dynamic, web-like structure that reflects Lockwood’s interest in abstraction, experimentation, and modernist design. Lockwood’s work bridges the traditions of American Regionalism, Taos Modernism, and postwar abstraction. His experience in Europe, exposure to Paul Cézanne and Vincent van Gogh, and later involvement with the Taos art community and Federal Art Project helped shape a career defined by continual artistic exploration. The painting is presented in a substantial custom frame, making it an excellent statement piece for a modern, contemporary, or Southwestern interior. It is particularly appealing to collectors seeking historically significant American modernist painting associated with Taos and New Mexico. Frame Dimensions: 29 ¾ x 23 x 2 inches Image Size: 26 x 20 inches About the Artist Born in Kansas in 1894, Ward Lockwood studied at the University of Kansas and the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts before serving in the U.S. Army during World War I. His military service brought him to France, where he encountered European modernism and was strongly influenced by Cézanne and van Gogh. He later returned to Paris to study at the Académie Ranson. In 1926, Lockwood settled in Taos, New Mexico, where he became closely associated with the Taos art community and the Taos Society...

By Max Manning

Located in Los Angeles, CA

Max Manning is a Houston-based painter whose practice he describes as “algorithmic abstraction”, studio-built systems that he deliberately disrupts to create compositions where loosely figurative fragments, patterns, and color fields collide. Working in series, Manning sets up rule-driven visual frameworks such as grids, repeated motifs, cut-outs, and layered shapes, and then interrupts them through shifts in palette, gesture, and scale. The result is a retro-contemporary language: paintings that acknowledge a world shaped by data and screens while insisting on the tactility, stillness, and breath of paint. • One-of-a-kind abstract artwork on paper measuring 20 x 16 inches • Unframed and signed by the artist on the back • Includes certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery • Convenient local Los Angeles delivery available • Affordable Continental U.S. and international shipping available Across his practice, Manning has maintained a clear studio ethos: to “paint through the questions” of life lived alongside algorithms. Instead of reproducing digital aesthetics, he uses rule sets to destabilize them—allowing glitches, misalignments, and pauses to surface. The work’s visual “systems” act less like predictive code and more like open, humanized structures where attention can rest. This stance has resonated with curators and collectors attuned to abstraction’s current arc: grounded in art-historical form, responsive to contemporary cognition, and committed to the slow time of looking. Manning earned a BFA in Two-Dimensional Studies from Bowling Green State University (2011) and an MFA from the University of Cincinnati (2014). His work has been exhibited widely in the U.S. and abroad and gained early institutional and critical attention through selection for the 2017 Texas Biennial, curated by Leslie Moody Castro, with press coverage in Texas arts media. Artspace Warehouse has been representing and exhibiting Max Manning's original artworks since 2025.
