Rockwell Kent, Attributed: Greenland

Rockwell Kent, Attributed: Greenland:

Rockwell Kent (American, 1882 – 1971), Attributed: Greenland, Oil on canvas, signed lower right, framed.

Growing up in a genteel family in New York City, Rockwell Kent was a member of the rugged realist school of landscape painters as well as a popular illustrator and printmaker. His 1930 illustrations for Moby Dick are among his most lasting achievements. He was the first American artist to have work exhibited in the Soviet Union, a reflection of his Communist Party sympathies, which earned him the Lenin Peace Prize in 1967. This espousal of radical politics caused his career to suffer badly in the ’50s because his leftist views caused him disdain among many Americans. However, his work, reflecting both realism and modernism, has earned increasing attention from American art historians.

Attributed to Lee Lenore Krasner: Abstract Composition

Attributed to Lee Lenore Krasner: Abstract Composition:

Attributed to Lee Lenore Krasner (American, 1908 – 1984): Abstract Composition. Oil on canvas, signed “Lee” lower right, unframed.

Lee Krasner’s place in American art can be qualified in many ways, including through her role as a forerunner of the first original American art movement, Abstract Expressionism. This style can be seen as a manifestation of the horror felt in the wake of WWII, a horror unique to most Americans. The calculated slaughter of innocent Jews, the use of the first weapon of mass destruction on the citizens of Japan, the first direct attack on US soil—these were all unprecedented events in the minds of most Americans. Emotions of helplessness and confusion overwhelmed these artists and created a state of mind that we can identify with today, in the wake of the tragedies of our own era.

50 x 20 inches canvas.
