About the Item

An intriguing modern lithograph on paper titled “The Patriarch (Oedipus at Colonus)” by Leonard Baskin. Signed on the bottom right with an annotation of 87/160. Baskin was known for his portrait series of various famous artists and intellects. Oedipus at Colonus is the last of the three Theban plays of the Athenian tragedian Sophocles. An example of this print is in the permanent collection in the National Gallery of Art. Dimensions: 36.25”h x 26.25”w x 1.25”d (framed). Leonard Baskin (1922-2000) was an American sculptor, draughtsman, and graphic artist, as well as founder of the Gehenna Press. Called a Sculptor of Stark Memorials by the New York Times, Baskin is also known for his wood, limestone, bronze, and large-scale woodblock prints, which ranged from naturalistic to fanciful, and were frequently grotesque, featuring bloated figures or humans merging with animals. His monumental bronze sculpture, The Funeral Cortege, graces the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial in Washington, D.C. Baskin's work is held by major museums worldwide, including the Art Institute of Chicago, the British Museum, Detroit Institute of Arts, Metropolitan Museum of Art, MOMA, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, Smithsonian American Art Museum, and Whitney Museum of American Art.

Robert Kelly Kalasa V Signed Modern Abstract Aquatint Etching 5/50 Framed, 1985
By Robert Kelly
Located in Keego Harbor, MI
A bold and graphic modern aquatint etching in colors titled "Kalasa V" by Robert Kelly. Hand signed in pencil on the bottom right with an annotation of 5/50 on the bottom left. Published in 1985. Kelly's work intricately combines influences of the Bauhaus from Van Doesburg to Mondrian, with those of Schwitters and Klee, Kelly weds hints of the historical with the contemporary. His play of edges, angles, and cuts creates a tension and an intuitive logic to the placement of line and form. Kelly's work investigates the idea of doubleness through images that reflect, oppose, or mimic each other. Dimensions: 32"w x 1.5"d x 37"h (framed). In very good vintage condition. Robert Kelly (1956- ) paintings have been acquired by public and private collections in Europe and the United States, including The Whitney Museum of American Art, The Brooklyn Museum, New Mexico Museum of Art, Milwaukee Art Museum, Smith College Art Museum, Jane Voorhees Zimmerli Art Museum, Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts, The Fogg Museum, The Margulies Collection, and the McNay Art Museum. Kelly has traveled throughout the United States, Europe, North Africa, the Near East, and Nepal. His work often incorporates unusual materials from his journeys, among them vintage posters and printed antique...
