After attending City of Oxford High School for Boys, where he excelled at rugby and cricket, he started work as an accountant in the city.

When he left his job with BOAC he became a graphic designer at Pergamon Press, owned by Robert Maxwell, which allowed him time to pursue his real passion which was painting watercolours.
He rose through the ranks at Pergamon to become studio manager and when he could progress no further he decided to become a full time artist, a role from which he never retired.

ABOUT BURK UZZLE
Burk Uzzle (1938- ) was born in Raleigh, North Carolina and has spent his adult life as a professional
photographer. Grounded in documentary photography, he was the youngest contract photographer when
he was hired by Life Magazine at age 23. For sixteen years, during the 1970’s and 1980’s, he was an
active contributor to the evolution of Magnum Photos and served as its president in 1979 and 1980.
While affiliated with Magnum, he produced iconic and symbolic images of Woodstock and the
assassination and funeral of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
His archive spans more than six decades and captures much of the history of analog and digital
photography. His current bodies of work rest deep in social justice issues. A dozen years ago, Uzzle
returned to North Carolina to live and work in two century old industrial buildings located in downtown
Wilson not far from where he was born. With the energy and determination of someone half his age, he
wakes every morning at 5 am, takes an hour to swiftly bike all over the town before the sun is up, and
then gets to work. Disciplined, organized, and always open to ideas emboldened through keen intuition,
Uzzle states with conviction that photography is his reason to breathe and what he sees is his muse.

Untitled
By Billy Al Bengston
Located in San Francisco, CA
Artist: Billy Al Bengston – American (1934-2022)
Title: Untitled
Year: 1990
Medium: Lithograph, silkscreen on Arches paper
Sight size: 19.5 x 25.5 inches.
Sheet size: 24 x 30 inches.
Signature: Signed lower right
Publisher: Cirrus Editions, Ltd., Los Angeles, CA
Edition: 250 This one: 120/250
Condition: Excellent
This print is by Billy Al Bengston. It depicts what looks like a coyote staring out at the horizon on a full moon night. This print was created at the same time Bengston was creating his Moon paintings. The print has dark colors. As a result, my photographs are imperfect; they have a bit of glare. The print is in excellent condition. It is attached by two hinges to a matboard measuring 26 x 32 inches and has a Plexiglas frame. The frame is in fair condition with some light scratches.
Billy Al Bengston (June 7, 1934 – October 8, 2022) was an American visual artist and sculptor who lived and worked in Venice, California, and Honolulu, Hawaii. Bengston was probably best known for work he created that reflected California's "Kustom" car and motorcycle culture. He pioneered the use of sprayed layers of automobile lacquer in fine art and often used colors that were psychedelic and shapes that were mandala-like. ARTnews referred to Bengston as a "giant of Los Angeles's postwar art scene."
Early life and education
Bengston was born in Dodge City, Kansas, on June 7, 1934. His family relocated to Los Angeles in 1948. He attended Los Angeles City College in 1952. Subsequently, he studied painting under Richard Diebenkorn and Saburo Hasegawa at the California College of Arts and Crafts, in Oakland, California, in 1955 and returned to Los Angeles to study at Otis Art Institute in 1956.
Career
Bengston began showing with the Ferus Gallery in Los Angeles (founded and run by Walter Hopps and Edward Kienholz, and later Irving Blum), having five shows between 1958 and 1963. As a fixture at the gallery, he was among a cohort of artists that included Kienholz, Ed Ruscha, Larry Bell, Kenneth Price, Ed Moses, and Robert Irwin. (The gallery closed in 1966.) In a 2018 article in Vanity Fair, Bengston recalled that he and Irwin hung the 32 pieces in Andy Warhol's Campbell's soup-can paintings show at Ferus in 1962. He notably described the atmosphere of Ferus as a "macho intellectual gang bang".
After seeing the work of Jasper Johns at the 1958 Venice Biennale he adopted the motif of a set of sergeant's stripes. This recurring chevron image was painted with industrial materials and techniques associated with the decoration of motorcycle fuel tanks and surfboards. According to Grace Glueck of The New York Times, Bengston "was among the first to ditch traditional oil paint on canvas, opting instead for sprayed layers of automobile lacquer on aluminum in soft colors, achieving a highly reflective, translucent surface."
Bengston encouraged viewers in the early 1960s to associate his art with motorcycle subculture; on the cover of a 1961 catalogue for a Ferus show, he was seen straddling a motorcycle. (He also competed in motocross competitions.) "When I painted these motorcycle paintings...

Lucien Charles E. Alliot French Art Deco Bronze The Gazelles 1930
Located in Oakland, CA
Lucien Alliot French Art Deco Bronze The Gazelles 1930. The brown patina on a marble base signed on the bronze L Alliot and stamped bronze on the deer. This particular piece has exceptional rhythm where the two gazelles interplay in a movement depicting leaping over the hills or water—very three-dimensional treatment showing the movement of the animals.
Lucien Charles Eduoard Alliot (1877-1967), the sculptor, was born in 1877 in Paris, France. His work was part of the sculpture event in the art competition at the 1924 Summer Olympics. He exhibited regularly at the Salon des Artistes Français, was a member and the gold medal in 1920, out of competition, and was a member of the sculpture jury from 1934 to 1939. Alliot was well known for his figurative sculptures, which were exhibited for many years at the Salon de Paris. He received a third-place award in 1907 (which included funds for travel expenses) and a first-place award l in 1920. After he declared himself out of the artistic competition, he became a jury member at the Salon evaluating sculptural works from 1934 to 1939. Alliot created several allegorical groups: La Paix in 1939, and several religious illustrations: Sacré Cœur in 1924, La Vierge Marie...
