About the Item
A modern pastel drawing on paper by Detroit artist Charles Culver. Hand signed in pencil bottom right. A dreamy landscape of seaside mountains. Per the artist, "I try to 'see' though not too exactly; I try to think though not too ponderously; I feel emotion yet I try not to become overwrought. I interpret rather than describe, and design rather than depict. I work with values, not light and shade; hence, when I am successful, I achieve substance rather than three-dimensional form, and this satisfies me as being wholly sufficient. In my work I wish to be serious without becoming a bore, exuberant without being frivolous, humorous without being silly. I believe that good paintings are conceived, not contrived; and I am interested in art much more than in pictures." From a private collection. Dimensions: 17.5"h x 22.75"w x 1"d (framed). In very good vintage condition.
Charles Culver (1908-1967) was a Detroit based painter, illustrator, and teacher. In the 1950s, he was a professor at Arts and Crafts in Detroit (now College of Creative Studies). Culver created hundreds of painting for Ford Times as well as writing children's books and cartoons for the Royal Oak Tribune. He had over 25 one-man shows in the Detroit area alone, won 14 prizes at the "Exhibition for Michigan Artists" sponsored by the DIA, including the Scarab Club Gold Medal in 1940-43, and is represented by some 90 paintings in the DIA's permanent collection. Culver's paintings can be found in museums and private collections both nationally and internationally.

Arthur Secunda Provence Signed AP Limited Edition Serigraph on Paper Framed 1980
By Arthur Secunda
Located in Keego Harbor, MI
In this silkscreen by Arthur Secunda, the landscape artist has developed his own iconography in representing nature, the land and its forms, as well as corresponding inner landscapes. Signed on the bottom right with an AP annotation and title on the bottom left. A beautiful color gradation and blending of forms in many media. His work tends to oscillate between the serene--striated colors in landscapes--to the expressive, as in many of his oil paintings. Dimensions: 19.25"w x 1"d x 43.25"h (framed). In very good vintage condition.
Arthur Secunda (1927- ) is an internationally renowned artist whose career has spanned eight decades. His one man shows have been seen worldwide in numerous galleries and museums in France, Sweden, Belgium, Holland, Spain, Israel, and Japan. In the United States, he is represented in most major museums of the country, including the National Gallery of Art and the Smithsonian Museum in Washington D.C., the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the UCLA Museum, the Detroit Art...
