Will Barnet Landscape Paintings

American, 1911-2012
At the beginning of his career, Will Barnet was known for his figural depictions of domestic scenes. But, as he continued to stylistically develop, Barnet arrived at abstract geometric paintings far removed from his original career. A part of the Indian Space Painters group, Barnet was inspired by Native American art in creating these divergent images. Throughout his career, Barnet oscillated between representational and abstract paintings, never fully settling on one. He has received the National Medal of Arts in 2011, and his work has been displayed at the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Museum of Modern Art, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Philip Evergood, Little Rock, Oil on Canvas, 1955 - "Civil Rights."

By Philip Evergood

Located in Miami, FL

"Civil Rights." Evergood's early commentary on racial issues in the 1950s depicts four black men gagged, roped, and hanging from the "Tree of Life," which represents the unique interconnectedness of life. In the background, imprisoned blacks look on through a barbed-wire fence. Whites watch in horror but do nothing to help. Meanwhile, a two-legged, three-headed serpent wraps itself around the tree that both physically and symbolically separates the races. This is an important work in the history of American art. It may be one of the very earliest examples of a major American painter doing a major work that challenges racial segregation and injustice at a time when no one else would. The title of the work is inspired by a Historic Supreme Court decision on racial segregation. The Little Rock...

Communist Rally, Cleveland Public Square - Depression Era American Oil Painting

By Clyde Singer

Located in Marco Island, FL

Painted during America's Great Depression (1929-1939), when Americans were looking for change and new ideas to navigate societal struggles. The young boy is looking away and uninterested in the passionate speaker. Also in the foreground is the police officer, who is there to keep the peace. This image was included in the exhibition and book titled Clyde Singer's America, Fig. 80. Oil Painting on board with conservation backing. Presented in a custom frame. The following is excerpted from an article by Elizabeth McClelland, published in "Little Bits of History, Clyde Singer, American Scene Painter" in TIMELINE, December 1966, a publication of the Ohio Historical Society. Born in Malvern, Ohio, forty miles south of Akron, Clyde Singer became known for his regionalist paintings in oil and watercolor of people at carnivals, standing in bars, on windy street corners, celebrating holidays, or looking at pictures in a gallery. Many of his works are small, ones he calls his "bread and butter...
