Deborah Marlowe Kashdan The Chicago Girls Signed Oil Painting on Canvas Framed

About the Item

A modern oil painting on canvas titled "Museum Performance Piece: The Chicago Girls, Part II" by Michigan artist Deborah Marlowe Kashdan. Signed bottom right. Circa 1980s. A dynamic composition with energy and movement as three elegantly dressed female figures walk side-by-side in a bustling city. The patterns on the dresses are vibrant and eye-catching. Per the artist, "“I am a commentor on the urban scene; a reporter of worlds in paint. My works are narratives. Documenting the social dramas in life. At the same time, they abstract reality, challenging the viewers by forcing them to interact with the piece of art! The viewer must decide where reality ends, and fantasy begins; whether the viewer is observing the people, or are the people looking out at the viewer? My people appear as archetypes for people who are ambiguous in time, representing a universal person…a person whose actions and interactions are timeless. They appear in dramas that record the innuendos of social intercourse and/or the importance of social status. I believe that if you can change how people see, you can change how people think. In addition, within my work always lies a serious concern with the impact of line, edge, color, balance and harmonious composition." From a private collection; original gallery tag on verso. Dimensions: 41"h x 31.25"w x 1.5"d (framed). In very good vintage condition. Deborah Marlowe Kashdan is a national and international award-winning artist, and has been in hundreds of exhibitions, both solo and juried, in galleries and museums in Michigan and across the country. Her work is in numerous private and public collections including Toyota Museum of Art in Toyota, Japan, and College for Creative Studies in Detroit. She has exhibited in hundreds of exhibitions, both in the Detroit area and nationally. She was inducted into the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution, in 1979.
