Artworks by Lynne Mapp Drexler and Thanos Tsingos Grab Attention in Upcoming Barridoff Auctions Fine Arts Sale

Lynne Mapp Drexler was well-known for her Abstract Expressionist artworks. Her paintings often involved vibrant landscapes recalling Henri Matisse’s works. The upcoming Barridoff Auctions sale presents an untitled Lynne Mapp Drexler painting. The 1961 gouache on paper depicts the artist’s Hans Hofmann-inspired brushstrokes. The vibrant color swatches in Drexler’s artwork set her apart from fellow artists.

Another highlight is an oil painting titled Fleur Bleue, en Bouquet Polychrome sur Fond Noir by Thanos Tsingos. His lyrical artworks are known to take the viewer beyond reality. The artist created his subjects with thick paste laid using fingers. The available artwork portrays a blue flower on a black background set in a polychrome bouquet. It is a fine example of Tsingos’ unconventional painting process, which is devoid of brushes. Also showcased is a gelatin silver print titled Folding by Ruth Bernhard. The available studio-based photograph by Bernhard depicts a nude person curled in a ball. Ruth Bernhard’s nude shots have acquired international acclaim. Folding highlights her idea of valuing small things in life.

A wood assemblage, titled Through the Barn Window, by Bernard Langlais is also notable. It features Langlais’ use of different materials and a deeper understanding of space. The sculpture defines his affinity toward the animal kingdom. Interested collectors can also find watercolor and ink drawings by Walt Kuhn and works of Maurice Freedman, William Manning, William Thon, and Charles Reid.
