About the Item
"Janus" by Filipino-American Artist Alfonso Ossorio. 29/ 125 Work is a Silkscreen print from 1969. The title janus refers to the roman god of beginnings and endings, who is typically depicted with two faces looking to the past and future! Ossorio's style in this piece combines the frenetic lines of his earlier abstract expressionists work with scattered orbs and fragments resembling his later assemblages, known as Congregations. Ossorio was a wealthy and well-educated artist known for his Abstract Expressionist paintings and sculptural works. He was a colleague and collector of Jean Dubuffet and Jackson Pollock.

"Johnny Gotthard Friedlaender (1912-1992), printmaker and painter, was born in Pless, Prussian Silesia (Germany) on June 21, 1912, the son of a pharmacist. He moved to Breslau in 1921 and, in 1928, he enrolled at the Breslau Art Academy where he attended master classes taught by Otto Mueller, a member of Die Brücke. During his academy years Friedlaender worked in lithography and etching.
In 1930, he moved to Dresden, where his work was included in group exhibitions at Galerie J. Sandel and, in 1936, he traveled to Czechoslovakia, Switzerland, Austria, France, and Belgium. Friedlaender and his young wife fled the Nazi regime in 1937 settling in Paris as political refugees. In 1938 and 1939, Friedlaender worked at the literary weekly magazine Marianne on Paul Chadourne's recommendation. From 1939 to 1943 he was interned in a series of concentration camps. After the war, the Friedlaenders returned to Paris in 1945, in 1947 he became a member of the Salon de Mai, and in 1950 he became a French citizen.
"Friedlaender worked for various journals and focused on etching as his main medium of expression. He became one of the great innovators in color printmaking and a school formed in Paris around his work as a painter and printmaker. From his Paris atelier Friedlaender instructed younger artists who themselves went on to become noteworthy, among them Arthur Luiz Piza, Brigitte Coudrain...
