Kuhn, Walt (American, 1877-1949). ORTHOPHONIC EVENING. Drawing, ink and watercolor, 1928. Titled, signed and dated within the image, in ink, and further inscribed with the copyright symbol (c in a circle) and signed and dated 1937, in pencil, presumably to preserve reproduction and publication rights. 9 1/2 x 15 1/2 inches, plus margins of about 1/2 inch. In excellent condition. The "Orthophonic Victrola," introduced in 1925, was the first electric record player sold commercially. In the drawing it is seen at the left, with the host changing a record. The rest of the drawing reveals that listening to music was not the primary activity of the "orthophonic evening." The following is quoted from The Pillips Collection's biography of Kuhn: Walt Kuhn is remembered as an early promoter of modern art in America. He was not only a well-known painter, but also a cartoonist, sculptor, printmaker, writer, teacher, and producer of vaudeville shows. Born in 1877, Kuhn grew up in Brooklyn, where he received his education in private schools until he was sixteen. In 1899 he ventured to San Francisco to work as a cartoonist for The Wasp, a political and literary weekly. In 1901 Kuhn traveled to Europe for formal art training at the Académie Colarossi in Paris and later at the Munich Academy. Returning to New York in 1903, he established a studio in Manhattan and helped arrange the 1910 Exhibition of Independent Artists. He was a founding member and officer of the Association of American Painters and Sculptors, the organization responsible for mounting the Armory Show of 1913, and in this role traveled through Europe in 1912 looking at art and helping to select works to be exhibited. Seeing paintings by Cézanne, Derain, Dufy, Pascin, and the cubists affected his style, and throughout the teens and early twenties Kuhn experimented with fauve colors, using blocks of color akin to Cézanne and with cubist space, integrating abstracted forms into the space of the picture plane. Finally, he developed his own painting style characterized by solid, sculptural depictions of single figures. Kuhn had his first solo show in 1910 at the Madison Gallery...

Sloan, John (American, 1871-1951). FRANKIE AND JOHNNIE. or HIM Morse 236. Etching, 1928. Edition of 100 (but only 50 were printed, by Platt). Dated and Titled in the plate, and Signed in pencil by Sloan and inscribed "100 Proofs," and also signed by Peter Platt. With tack holes and deckled edges. 5 x 8 inches, 126 x 203 mm. (plate), 8 1/2 x 12 1/4 inches (sheet). In excellent condition. From Morse: " A small chorus singing 'Frankie and Johnnie' crowds the tiny stage of the Provincetown Players Theater in MacDougal Street. An episode from E. E. Cummings' intelligent and entertaining production, HIM." (Sloan writing in 1945). "HIM" is about as thrilling an evening's entertainment as I have ever experienced. I liked it thoroughly -- I do not claim to understand it -- I do not believe that a work of art can be, nor need be understood, even by the maker. It seemed to me to be a glimpse inside the cranium of an artist-poet." (Sloan in a letter to James Light, the director of the play) Though Morse says the stars were Hemsley Williams and Goldye Steiner, it was actually Hemliey Winfield (1907 - 1934), the founder of the New Negro Art Theater Dance Group. This company was very successful and highly regarded. It appeared in the Metropolitan Opera's premier of Louis Gruenberg's setting of Eugene O'Neill's "The Emperor...
