"Steel Factory" Cuban Mid 20th Century Modern Drawing WPA Latin Art Industrial
Ink on paper. 12 x 19 inches. Pogolotti lived in Paris in the 1930s. The drawing here comes from the collection of his Parisian ophthalmologist, Dr. Prokopenko . Unfortunately, the artist lost his eyesight in 1938.
Marcelo Pogolotti (1902–1988) was a Cuban painter. Born in Havana, the son of Dino Pogolotti, he spent his childhood between Cuba and Europe, beginning his artistic study in Italy.

He was attracted to surrealism and futurism, incorporating elements of both into his work. He exhibited at numerous venues in both Cuba and Europe before losing his vision in 1938. He later returned to Cuba and became an essayist, novelist and critic, living both there and in Mexico. He died in Havana in 1988.
Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes (National Museum of Fine Arts), the leading museum in Cuba, currently has two rooms filled with works. by Pogolotti, a national treasure.

BIO
Hugó Scheiber was born in Budapest in 1873. At the age of eight, he moved with his family from Budapest to Vienna.
In 1898, to help support his family after they had returned to Budapest. He started working during the day, attending painting classes at the Commercial Art School in the evening. In 1900, he completed his studies.
Scheiber showed an early interest in German Expressionism and Futurism. In 1915 he met Marinetti, who invited him to join the Futurist movement. Because Scheiber's paintings conflicted with academic style of the Hungarian art establishment, his work was virtually ignored in his own country.

A modernist artist who emigrated to America from Greece in 1904, when he was fourteen years old, Jean Xceron is described as having a reputation as an artist that has mysteriously fallen into obscurity---especially since he was reportedly quite prominent during his lifetime. However, a partial explanation of that omission is the fact that many of his papers and early records have been lost. He was a painter of biomorphic abstractions and did collages, which were influenced by Dadaism.
Xceron was active in New York City when modernism was gaining influence. Of him during this period, it was written that his artistic role was "a vital link between what is commonly termed as the first-generation (the Stieglitz group, the Synchromists, etc.) and second-generation, the American Abstract Artists, the Transcendental Painting...
