Monumental Painting by Patrick Tidd, 1964

About the Item

Monumental oil on canvas, 1964 by Bay Area Painter and Educator Patrick Tidd. Painting measures 63.25" wide, 2" deep and 68.5" high. From the ex-collection of architect Richard Peters, longtime chair of the UC Berkeley Architecture department and a founding architect of Sea Ranch. Patrick Tidd (1929-) is a painter and educator who exhibited in San Francisco and Berkeley during the politically and aesthetically tumultuous years of the 1960s and 1970s. Tidd showed regularly at the Berkeley Art Center, a Bay Area hot spot for avant-garde art at the time. His paintings of the early 1960s, are beautifully-crafted enigmas. With their dreamy geometric forms and private symbolism they were described by critics as explorations for a new language and mode of expression beyond abstract expressionism, the dominant style at the time. His ingenuity and success in navigating this space made him a closely watched harbinger by Artforum and others. In the late 1960s and 1970s Tidd would settle on hard-edge symbol-scapes that combine elements of surrealist architecture and abstract forms to create a pop science fiction vibe.
