Oil paint on heavy paper. (this might possibly be acrylic paint) This does not appear to be signed. Joan Kahn (USA 1953-) grew up in New York City; Princeton, New Jersey; and Vermont; in an environment that patronized the arts. At home her father, a professor, and mother, a state economist and homemaker, collected nineteenth and twentieth century drawings and prints, Middle eastern rugs, and ceramics, pewter, and old tools. Her grandfather, Max Westfield, was an academically trained portrait painter and her great uncle was a well-known gallery owner and art dealer in pre-World War II Germany. One of the influential experiences of Joan’s youth was visiting her grandfather in his studio in Tennessee where the family had first immigrated. Growing up near New York, and spending a year in Paris during high school, provided formative visits to museums and galleries. Joan was academically talented in grade and high school, but after her father’s death during her first years at university she found herself concentrating on studio and history of art. It was a subject above others absorbed and concentrated her focus. Influential in Joan’s development and later work are the historic movements of the Bauhaus and Modernist design and architecture, geometric art and design of diverse cultures, Color Field Painting. Many artists have had a impact on her work, such as Paul Klee, Piet Mondrian, Sonia Delaunay, Mark Rothko, Ad Reinhardt, Antoni Tapies, David Smith, John McLaughlin, Tony Smith, Louise Nevelson, Robert Mangold, Ellsworth Kelly, Agnes Martin, Valerie Jaudon, Jasper Johns, James Turrell, Robert Irwin, Vija Celmins, Caio Fonseca, Peter Halley, Ed Moses, Juan Usle, and Nancy Haynes...

Budd Hopkins, American (1931-2011) Strike Red Oil on canvas, 1965, signed 'Hopkins' and dated lower right. Dimensions: 85 x81 in., 86 x 52 in. with frame. Provenance: bears partial label remnant verso from Poindexter Gallery. (a major gallery founded in 1955 in New York City by Elinor Poindexter. The gallery specialized in sculpture, abstract, and figurative art and featured the works of such artists as Richard Diebenkorn, Jules Olitski, Nell Blaine, Al Held, Willem de Kooning, Franz Kline, Earl Kerkam, Milton Resnick and Robert De Niro, among others. Budd Hopkins was one of the leading proponents of the "hard-edge" abstract minimalist school of painting in the 1950s and 1960s, Budd Hopkins (born 1931) created works that show the strong influence of Jackson Pollock and other leading painters of the Abstract Expressionism movement. Hopkins' paintings are now in numerous major collections, including the San Francisco Museum of Art, the Guggenheim Museum in New York, and the Hirshhorn Collection in Washington, DC. Recently, he has also been recognized for his research into the matter of UFOs and one of his books, "The Intruders", printed by Random House, was on the New York Times best-seller list and was the basis for a television show on CBS. Born in 1931, he is a graduate of Linsly Military Institute (now Linsly School) in 1949 and Oberlin College in 1953. He first displayed artistic abilities when, as a child recovering from a long-term illness, he began to create sculptures of ships made out of modeling clay. But it wasn't until he arrive at Oberlin that he made a serious study of art. Later, Hopkins included abstracted figures in his sculptural pieces. While moving away from Abstract Expressionism, Hopkins retained in his work the use of intense colors and hard-edged forms. His works of the 1980s, including Temples and Guardians, featured these "sentinels" who were, according to Hopkins, "participating in a frozen ritual, fixed – absolutely – within a privileged space..." Though Hopkins denied any connection, some critics viewed these ritualistic pieces as an extension of Hopkins' fascination with alien beings. Hopkins viewed his sculpted guardians not as human per se, but as magical, fierce, noble robots of the unconscious. He settled in New York after obtaining his degree and has had a residence there ever since. He and his wife, April Kingsley, and their daughter, Grace, divide their time between their home at Cape Cod, Mass., and that in New York City. In his work, he travels widely. He has exhibited in England, Finland, Italy and Switzerland. In 1963, Hopkins was selected by the Columbia Broadcasting System as one of the 15 painters featured in the network's first television special on American art. In 1958, Art News picked him as one of 12 Americans for exhibition in Spoleto, Italy, in the "Festival of Two Worlds." His brilliance has won him a number of fellowships and awards. In 1972, the West Virginia Arts and Humanities Council awarded him its Commission Prize. In 1976, he received the John Simon Guggenheim Fellowship for Painting and in '79 he received a fellowship from the National Endowment of the Arts. He also won a special project grant from the New York State Council on the Arts in 1982. He was friends with Robert Ryman and many of the other 10th street avant garde artists. He was an original member of March Gallery which showed Alice Baber, Elaine de Kooning, Mark di Suvero, Lester Johnson, Matsumi Kanemitsu. His art has been featured in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Museum of Modern Art, Bronx Museum of Art, Brooklyn Museum, Whitney Museum, Corcoran Gallery, Guggenheim Museum, Queens Museum in New York, and the Public Library of New York.

Irving B Haynes FAIA (1927 – 2005) Painting on heavy paper Hand initialed recto and hand signed and dated verso Irving B Haynes FAIA (1927 – 2005) was an American architect and preservationist. He practiced architectural design in Pawtucket and Providence, Rhode Island from 1961 to 1994 and taught at the Rhode Island School of Design from 1973 to 2005. Irving Bogle Haynes was born on January 14, 1927, in Waterville, Maine. He was educated at Colby College before transferring to the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD), graduating with a BFA in 1951 and a BS in architecture in 1954. He worked for architects Robinson, Green & Beretta from 1954 to 1957 and for Harkness & Geddes from 1957 to 1958 before joining the Pawtucket firm of Monahan, Meikle & Johnson. After the retirements of Monahan and Meikle, in 1961 Haynes became a partner in the reorganized Johnson & Haynes. When Johnson retired from practice in 1968 Haynes succeeded to the business, and moved it to Providence in 1970. The business was reorganized as Irving B. Haynes & Associates in 1978 with the addition of Cornelis de Boer, and as Haynes/de Boer Associates in 1994 when Haynes retired from practice. A former professor at the prestigious Rhode Island School of Design (RISD), Haynes was a true renaissance man: war veteran, architect, talented athlete, photographer and jazz pianist. He then went on to have a distinguished career as a painter and architect for nearly half a century. Painting, however, was Haynes’ true passion. A confirmed “modernist", he utilized a variety of media on paper -- crayon, wax, watercolor, oil painting and acrylic -- to manipulate light, texture, shape and line. He was especially renowned for his skillful use of color. They have a densequilt like color field, cubist feel to them. His friend and colleague at RISD, Thomas Lyon Mills, told the Brown Daily Herald, “Irving admired other painters whose idealistic search for precision often was a difficult one...He loved Paul Cezanne...Cezanne’s color and rock-solid compositions that were at once flat and spatial.” In 2005, just a few months after his death, RISD’s Industrial Design Department Gallery hosted an exhibition of his most recent works called “Irving B. Haynes: Paintings, 2001-2005”. In 2009 the Newport Art Museum held another retrospective titled "Irving B. Haynes, Abstractions: 1960-2005". Examples of his work are in the permanent collections of the Newport Art Museum and the RISD Art Museum. Haynes became known both as an architect and preservationist early in his career. In the 1960s he was responsible for some of the most outstanding new works in urban renewal areas in Pawtucket and Providence and was responsible for the reconstruction and restoration of the First Unitarian Church of Providence following a devastating fire. Later he restored Providence City Hall and the Westminster Arcade and in 1981, along with William D. Warner and Friedrich St. Florian, Haynes devised the original scheme for Waterplace Park, later executed by Warner. Haynes joined the American Institute of Architects in 1962 and was elected a Fellow in 1982. In 1973 Haynes joined the RISD faculty, teaching foundation studies. In 1980 he was promoted to assistant professor and after his retirement from practice focused on his teaching. He became a full professor in 1997 and retired in 2005, shortly before his death. RISD is one of the great art campuses and has produced Famous Artists and Designers such as Shepard Fairey, Kara Walker, Jenny Holzer, Dale Chihuly, Do-Ho Suh , Tavares Strachan and Rose B. Simpson. Notable Faculty have include Diane Arbus, Jennifer Packer...

Gerhard Richter Untitled Abstract Picture, 2002 Offset lithograph on GardaMatt Art 250 GSM paper Not signed, edition of 3433 12 1/2 × 16 3.5 inches Unframed Printed on GardaMatt Art 250 GSM paper, this beautiful and colorful piece was part of a portfolio of loose plate reproductions for Gerhard Richter's Abstraktes works. Released during his exhibitions at the San Francisco Museum of Art (Abstract Pictures) and the Museum of Modern Art (Gerhard Richter, 40 Years of Painting). It depicts Richters 1999 Oil on Aluminum abstract picture) More about Gerhard Richter: Gerhard Richter was born in 1932 in Dresden, Germany. Throughout his career, Richter has negotiated the frontier between photography and painting, captivated by the way in which these two seemingly opposing practices speak to and challenge one another. From exuberant canvases rendered with a squeegee and acerbic color charts to paintings of photographic detail and close-ups of a single brushstroke, Richter moves effortlessly between the two mediums, reveling in the complexity of their relationship, while never asserting one above the other. Richter’s life traces the defining moments of twentieth-century history and his work reverberates with the trauma of National Socialism and the Holocaust. In the wake of the Second World War, Richter trained in a Socialist Realist style sanctioned by East Germany’s Communist government. When he defected to West Germany in 1961, a month before the Berlin Wall was erected, Richter left his entire artistic oeuvre up to that point behind. From 1961 to 1964—alongside Blinky Palermo and Sigmar Polke—Richter studied at the Staatliche Kunstakademie Düsseldorf, where he began to explore the material, conceptual, and historical implications of painting without ideological restraint. Richter’s earliest paintings in Düsseldorf, stimulated by a fascination with current affairs and popular culture, responded to images from magazines and newspaper cuttings. Through the 1960s, Richter continued to address found and media images of subjects such as military jets, portraits, and aerial photographs. Notably, he reimagined family pictures he had smuggled from East Germany that included his smiling uncle Rudi, dressed in a Nazi uniform...
