Elaboration of A Summer Afternoon

About the Item

Described by the LA Times as "quiet moments of drama," the work of Claire Klarewicz-Okser leaves the viewer transfixed with narrative wanderlust. Ghostly scenes of intimate moments are Okser's bread and butter, firmly planting her work in many exhibitions during the last three decades. Her ultra realistic, yet oddly surreal work displays human interaction through a sense of stare, slight tough, and vibrant details. 'Elaboration of a Summer Afternoon' presents a curious intimate moment, and stunning detail - particularly the almost-tangible quality of the female subject's patterned silk dress. Oil on linen Signed Claire Klarewicz-Okser and dated '97 l.r.; also signed, titled and dated on verso 40 x 48 in (101.6 x 121.9 cm). Provenance: From a fine D.C. estate.
