I am always on the lookout for art that will contribute to my understanding, art that will broaden my perspective or make me feel a sense of connection. Most importantly, it needs to be distinctive enough that I want to experience it again.
The exhibition includes a selection of recent additions to the gallery inventory, mostly from my trip to Paris this summer. They are a diverse group and made in the 1920s through 1960s, yet all were created with an avant-garde style, ranging from Modernism to Surrealism to abstraction to conceptual portraiture. It is fascinating to see how well these works from periods gone by hold up and speak to a contemporary perspective. They were created by artists, some heralded, some lesser known, who were adding their own original expression to an ongoing discourse.
Artists included are: Laure Albin-Guillot, Pierre Boucher, Émeric Feher, Raymond Journeaux, Francois Kollar, Helmar Lerski, Daniel Masclet, Ralph Eugene Meatyard, Jean Moral, Jean Painlevé, Roger Parry, Jaroslav Rossler, Frederick Sommer, and Raoul Ubac.
