new york from 1948-52, during which time he studied with yasuo kuniyoshi and morris kantor. he remained at the art students league until 1952, where he befriended fellow artists jackson pollock and mark rothko. though he is often associated with abstract expressionism, he preferred to think of himself as \"an abstract phenomenist.\" jenkins' pictorial universe consists of streaks of color that awaken associations. he produced his first picture with diluted paints in 1951; later they were executed as pour pictures. the layers of pigment covering the picture supports are whisper-thin. jenkins' handling is intuitive yet informed by philosophy. he was receptive to sources of inspiration provided by the manifold impressions he had of his immediate surroundings. his aesthetic experiments usually involve the prismatic colors of the rainbow. however, jenkins also worked up the impressions he had received on his extensive travels. in such cases, it is the distinctive color of a particular place that he found most fascinating. jenkin's \"phenomena\" series, to which the present work belongs, was began in the 1960s and produced some of his most successful works. the inclusion of the word \"phenomena\" in these works is meant to inspire discovery of remarkable instances and forms created during his artistic process. the translucent and opaque layers draw viewer's

celebrated painter and sculptor whose career began in the late 1950s. as a founding member of equipo cronica, alongside rafael solbes and joan antoni toledo, valdes challenged spain\u2019s franco regime through politically charged art inspired by pop art, yet imbued with a distinctly narrative and critical dimension. after solbes\u2019s death in 1981 and the group\u2019s dissolution, valdes embarked on a solo career, reinterpreting masterpieces by velazquez, picasso, matisse, and van eyck with a bold, modern sensibility. his recurring motifs - such as velazquez\u2019s mariana de austria - reveal his deep engagement with art history while forging a contemporary visual language. since moving to new york in 1990, valdes has expanded his practice to include large-scale works in unconventional and tactile materials such as jute, tar, bronze, wood, and marble. his art has been recognized with major honors, including the premio nacional de bellas artes (1984), and featured in prestigious exhibitions at the guggenheim bilbao, museo reina sofia, and international biennials. his monumental sculptures have graced public spaces from paris\u2019s place vendome to valencia\u2019s

along the verso. we would like to thank yannick vu jakober for confirming the authenticity of this work. lot essay: born in hanoi in 1908, vu cao dam displayed an early interest in the arts. his father, a well-educated catholic, brought him up in a home surrounded by traditional chinese calligraphy and a wide range of cultural influences. in 1926, he began his formal artistic education at the painter victor tardieu\u2019s ecole des beaux-arts de l'indochine, now the vietnam university of fine arts. tardieu and his instructors taught academic european painting to his students as well as decoration, architecture, anatomy, and sculpture. it was at sculpture that young vu cao dam most excelled, and he joined the newly minted sculpture program at the ecole des beaux-arts, where he created several bronze busts that won him early acclaim. in 1931, following his graduation from the ecole des beaux-arts de l'indochine, vu cao dam received a scholarship to continue his art education in paris. he began his parisian studies at the cite internationale universitaire de paris. during his first year there, vu cao dam received the prestigious honor of an invitation to display his works in the exposition coloniale internationale. he then continued his studies at the ecole du louvre, where he was able to view the works of the great european academic masters he had been trained to emulate. however, he was most compelled by more recent works of the impressionists and post-impressionists, as well as great sculptors such as auguste rodin and alberto giacometti. vu cao dam\u2019s career took off following the completion of his education. he and fellow vietnamese expatriate le pho, a dear friend with whom he had studied in hanoi, found success and popularity on the paris art scene. vu cao dam began sculpting what would become his most famous subject matter: elegant vietnamese ladies. he continued to paint as well as sculpting, often painting on silk, a form of painting taught at the ecole des beaux-arts de l'indochine. he also began to put down personal roots in france, marrying and having two children. when world war ii broke out, paris became a dangerous place to live and work; vu cao dam sent his family to the countryside to escape the nazi-occupied city. however, he stayed in paris, frantically creating art out of any material available under strict rationing, and bicycling the 100-km distance to see his family whenever he could. during this time, he executed several of what are now seen as his finest works out of terracotta, demonstrating his resourcefulness and commitment to his art. in 1949, plagued by ill health, vu cao dam moved to the south of france with his family, to a villa named les heures claires. the bright, airy atmosphere of southern france had a large impact on his painting, as did the work of his new neighbor, marc chagall. his works take on a sunny, pastel air at this point. throughout the 1950s and into the early 1960s, vu cao dam gained international success, exhibiting throughout france, particularly in nice, as well as in sweden, belgium, and the uk. in the early 1960s, vu cao dam signed an exclusive contract with wally findlay galleries in the united states. this brought his work notoriety in the united states, and there are many fine examples of his work in the united states that originate from this partnership. vu cao dam remained in france for the rest of his life, continuing to create art until his death in 2000. \n \n unframed; height: 36 1/2 in x width: 29 1/4 in. framed; height: 43 1/2

american art history, best known for his role as an art historian, curator, and educator. he attended the university of manitoba from 1925-27. after immigrating to the united states to continue his education, he earned an am degree via northwestern in 1937 and then a master of fine arts from princeton in 1939. after serving in various roles at the frick collection and hunter college, and then at the office of war information during world war ii, he accepted a position as a professor of the art department at the university of minnesota, where he served as chair until 1961. one of his most influential tenures was as director of the walker art center in minneapolis from 1951 to 1961. under his leadership, the museum transitioned into a nationally respected institution for modern and contemporary art. arnason expanded the walker\u2019s programming to include avant-garde works, film, performance, and design, helping to redefine what a contemporary art museum could be. he also championed interdisciplinary exhibitions that bridged art and architecture, aligning with the modernist ideals of the time. beyond the walker, arnason served in various significant roles, including curator at the guggenheim museum. his academic career reflected his deep commitment to education and the dissemination of modern art. perhaps most enduringly, he authored \"history of modern art, \" first published in 1968 and now in its seventh edition. the textbook became a foundational resource in art history education, offering a comprehensive and accessible account of modern art\u2019s evolution. through his writing, arnason played a crucial role in shaping the way generations of students and scholars understood the narrative of modernism. arnason's legacy rests in both his institutional leadership and his scholarly contributions. he helped elevate modern art\u2019s status in the united states at a time when it was still gaining traction outside major urban centers. his curatorial vision emphasized inclusivity of media and innovation, while his textbook remains a benchmark in art historical literature. arnason bridged academic rigor with public engagement, leaving a lasting mark on the institutions he shaped and on the broader field of art history. \n \n height: 14 in x width: 16 1/2 in x depth: 1 in. \n condition: please email us at condition@revereauctions.com

\u201cmiami generation\u201d of cuban exile artists, including cesar trasobares and maria brito, who collectively shaped a new movement in cuban-american art. by the 1980s, calzada's paintings began to take on surreal qualities - walls and staircases led nowhere, and water and sea imagery became dominant themes. these elements expressed both nostalgia and a conceptual exploration of displacement, memory, and identity. his work increasingly reflected a longing for the homeland he left behind, using architectural details - such as stained-glass windows, panoramic arches, and colorful tiles - as metaphors for cultural continuity. his handling of light and color further elevated these spaces into dreamlike visions, evoking both the lost past and imagined reconstructions of cuban spaces. \n \n

gary fink. lot essay: marguerite thompson zorach was a groundbreaking figure in early american modernism, best known for her bold fauvist color palette, her embrace of cubist forms, and her refusal to conform to traditional gender roles in the art world. born in santa rosa, california, into a well-off, culturally refined family, she demonstrated prodigious artistic talent from a young age. after a brief time at stanford university, she left for paris in 1908 to study art, where her aunt - harriet adelaide harris, a friend of gertrude stein - introduced her to the city\u2019s avant-garde circles. in paris, zorach trained at the progressive academie de la palette, where she studied under scottish colourist john duncan fergusson and connected with artists like anne estelle rice, jessica dismorr, and anne goldthwaite. through these relationships and through her participation in exhibitions such as the salon d\u2019automne and the salon des independants, she became part of a vital transatlantic network of early 20th-century modernists. zorach played a key role in introducing modernist ideas to american audiences. she exhibited in the groundbreaking 1913 armory show and was closely associated with the new york avant-garde scene that flourished afterward. alongside her husband, sculptor william zorach - whom she met in paris and married in 1912 - she maintained an independent and collaborative artistic practice, working across painting, textiles, and design. the couple\u2019s greenwich village studio became a hub of creative exchange, and their joint exhibitions and cross-disciplinary projects challenged prevailing notions of gendered artistic roles. marguerite was also a strong advocate for women in the arts: she served as president of the new york society of women artists (1925) and participated in the society of independent artists. her work, often dismissed by male critics in her time, later came to be recognized for its experimental spirit, rich symbolism, and deeply personal themes, especially in her textile pieces, which included a monumental rockefeller family tapestry. in addition to her painting and embroidery, zorach was a prolific writer and educator. she published travel essays and cultural commentary in the fresno morning republican during her years abroad, offering rare insight into the experiences of a woman navigating the art capitals of europe and asia. during the great depression, she created murals for the works progress administration and continued to support her family through high-end textile commissions. her influence extended into the next generation through her children, including her daughter dahlov ipcar, a well-known painter and illustrator. later in life, marguerite taught at the new school and was a summer instructor and board member at the skowhegan school of painting and sculpture. she remained active in art until her death in 1968, leaving behind a legacy preserved by major institutions like the smithsonian, the metropolitan museum of art, and the brooklyn museum. today, she is recognized as a pioneering force in american modernism whose work bridged fine art, design, and feminist expression. gary c. fink was a collector with both a lighthearted sense of humor and a serious commitment to art. through the museum louvre it or leave it, he offered minnesotans an offbeat, thought-provoking experience; through mia gifts, he broadened institutional collections; and through his scholarship, he continues to enable the next generation of artists. a renaissance soul in the heart of minnesota\u2019s art community, gary c. fink was more than an astute collector - he was a spirited patron whose unconventional vision left an indelible mark on the creative

brown (american, 1938-1990). tempera and collage on museum board painting titled \"models pondering over construction, \" 1961. signed, titled, and dated along the verso. this painting comes from a series of works completed at alvin light's san francisco studio. brown - along with a group of artists that included william brown, manuel neri, and gordon cook (all of whom she would be married to throughout her life) - met regularly throughout the 1960s at light's studio. provenance: private california collection; george adams gallery, 2004; from the estate of gary fink. lot essay: joan brown was a trailblazing american figurative painter and a central figure in the second generation of the bay area figurative movement. her bold, autobiographical style combined expressive color, personal symbolism, and elements of beat and funk art, helping to define california\u2019s distinctive artistic identity in the mid-20th century. trained at the san francisco art institute, she was deeply influenced by mentor elmer bischoff and emerged early as a major talent, becoming the youngest artist featured in the 1960 whitney annual (now the whitney biennial) at just 22. brown worked alongside and was married to fellow bay area figurative artist manuel neri, and later to artist gordon cook, both of whom influenced her work and life. her painting often drew on deeply personal experiences, including motherhood, romantic relationships, swimming, and spiritual exploration. a near-drowning during a swim from alcatraz in 1975 became the subject of a haunting self-portrait, exemplifying how she used art as emotional processing and self-reflection. throughout her career, brown received numerous accolades, including a guggenheim fellowship in 1977, and she taught at several institutions, most notably serving as a tenured professor at uc berkeley from 1974 until her death. in her later years, she shifted her focus to public sculpture and spiritual themes, drawing from hindu and egyptian imagery after becoming close to indian spiritual leader sathya sai baba. brown tragically died in an accident in 1990 in puttaparthi, india, while installing a public sculpture at sai baba's eternal heritage museum. her legacy has been celebrated in major exhibitions, including a 2022 retrospective at sfmoma - the first in over twenty years - and in landmark shows such as \"women painting women\" and \"women of abstract expressionism.\" her work remains widely collected and revered for its honesty, energy, and fearless introspection. gary c. fink was a collector with both a

works, \" may 24-june 25, 2000. illustrated in catalogue as no. 15. lot essay: ignacio iturria is a celebrated contemporary painter known for his poetic, dreamlike works that explore memory, place, and the human condition. originally trained in commercial art and graphic design, he later dedicated himself to fine art, developing a distinctive style marked by earthy tones, toy-like figures, and shadowy domestic settings. his imagery reflects both personal history and national identity, drawing inspiration from the landscapes of uruguay and his basque heritage. during the 1980s, he lived in the artists\u2019 town of cadaques, spain, where his palette lightened and his visual language evolved. iturria gained international acclaim with awards such as the grand prize at the cuenca biennial (1994) and a special prize at the venice biennale (1995). he has exhibited widely across latin america, north america, europe, and japan, including major solo shows at the havana biennial and the museum of modern art in bogota. deeply committed to community and education, iturria founded the art school \"casablanca\" in uruguay in 2002 and later the ignacio iturria foundation to support emerging artists. he has also initiated artist colonies in both the u.s. and latin america. his work, often compared to that of philip guston and salvador dali, evokes the psychological landscapes of his environment, particularly the murky r&iacute;o de la plata. iturria continues to live and work in montevideo, remaining a vital figure in latin american art. gary c. fink was a collector with both

gallery, 1999; from the estate of gary fink. lot essay: christopher brown, born in 1951 at camp lejeune in north carolina, is an american painter whose work is deeply rooted in memory and perception. his early interest in art began in childhood after his family moved to ohio, and he later studied painting at the university of illinois in champaign-urbana. he earned his mfa at the university of california, davis, where he studied under notable artists such as wayne thiebaud, robert arneson, and manuel neri, and developed a strong interest in the media-driven concepts of pop art. a formative year spent in europe on a grant, particularly in spain and germany, deepened his engagement with european art traditions. after returning to the u.s., brown lived in various california communities, taught part-time, and wrote for artweek magazine. he later received a daad fellowship to return to munich, and upon his return became a faculty member in the studio art department at uc berkeley, where he taught from 1981 to 1994 and served as department chair. brown lives and works in berkeley, california. in an interview with the bott collection in 2023, brown had the following to say about the subject of the zapruder film and his art: \"for reasons i didn\u2019t really understand, i became fascinated by 19th-century photographs of the civil war and photographic \u201cstills\u201d taken from the zapruder film of the kennedy assassination, and my attempts to make paintings based on both were attempts to explore my own fascination. many people naturally thought i was deeply interested in history, that i was a civil war buff, etcetera, but that was never really the case. my interest was visual, primarily, and had to do with the challenges of describing the past rather than the present, with uncertainty and movement rather than still-life-like clarity.\" gary c. fink was a collector with both a lighthearted sense of humor and a serious commitment to art. through the museum

painter associated with the hudson river and white mountain schools. she gained recognition for her delicate oil and watercolor works depicting the unspoiled american northeast and, later, the exotic landscapes of florida. early in her career, she exhibited widely - including at the national academy of design, the boston art club, and the centennial exhibition of 1876 - and formed connections with major artists such as james d. smillie and julie hart beers. to avoid gender discrimination, she often signed her work \u201cl. woodward.\u201d in the 1880s, woodward began wintering in florida, eventually discovering and painting the tropical wilderness of palm beach and jupiter. her vivid depictions of royal poinciana trees and florida\u2019s flora drew public and critical acclaim. most notably, her artwork and advocacy directly influenced henry flagler\u2019s decision to develop palm beach as a resort destination. flagler supported her work by purchasing her paintings, exhibiting them, and building her a studio at the hotel royal poinciana, which opened in 1894. woodward\u2019s paintings helped popularize florida\u2019s east coast, earning her state-wide admiration. she also

exhibitions at galleries such as the kennedy gallery, the sporting gallery, and the harlow gallery. he was also a published artist in noted fishing books and an avid angler himself, even representing the u.s. on the national tuna fishing team. lawrence\u2019s work is preserved in prestigious collections including the library of congress, the museum of natural history, and the u.s. coast guard

influential early 20th-century painters whose bold use of color revolutionized scottish painting. largely self-taught, hunter spent his formative years in california, where he worked as an illustrator and moved in artistic and literary circles that included jack london, arnold genthe, and members of the san francisco bohemian club. he also co-founded the california society of arts alongside artists like maynard dixon and xavier martinez. hunter's career in fine art gained momentum after a formative trip to paris in 1904 and a devastating setback in 1906 when the san francisco earthquake destroyed much of his early work. returning to scotland, he gradually developed a vibrant style influenced by cezanne, matisse, and the french avant-garde. his use of expressive color and light earned critical praise, particularly in still lives and landscapes. notable patrons such as alexander reid, william burrell, and william mcinnes helped promote his work, while friendships with fellow colourists - samuel peploe, f.c.b. cadell, and j.d. fergusson - deepened his artistic development. hunter exhibited successfully in glasgow, london, and new york, with a standout show at the ferargil galleries in 1929. though he suffered from health issues late in life, he continued painting until his death in 1931. his legacy endured through posthumous exhibitions and rising market demand, with his paintings now among the most prized in scottish art history. gary c. fink was a collector with both a lighthearted sense of humor and a serious commitment to art. through the museum louvre it or

prendergast, sister-in-law of the artist; gift of eugenie to roger cloutier, a cpa who assisted with establishing the eugenie prendergast foundation in 1970; thence by descent. lot essay: maurice prendergast was a distinctive figure in early american modernism, best known for his vibrant, mosaic-like scenes of leisure and urban life. although he trained in paris and was influenced by post-impressionists like pierre bonnard and edouard vuillard, prendergast maintained a highly personal style that set him apart from his peers. his compositions are characterized by flattened forms, decorative patterning, and brilliant color harmonies, which reflected his keen interest in design and abstraction. these qualities made his work visually unique in american art at the turn of the 20th century and positioned him as a precursor to more radical modernist developments that would come later. in 1908, prendergast joined a group of painters known as \"the eight, \" a loose coalition of artists who exhibited together in a landmark show at macbeth gallery in new york. while many of the members - such as robert henri, george luks, and john sloan - were central figures in the ashcan school and depicted gritty scenes of working-class life, prendergast\u2019s luminous and decorative works stood in striking contrast. his inclusion in the group reflected both his alignment with their push against academic conservatism and his broader commitment to artistic innovation. although not a typical ashcan painter, prendergast's participation in this pivotal moment helped solidify his role in the formation of an independent american art scene. prendergast\u2019s legacy in art history rests on his fusion of decorative beauty with modernist principles. while he never fully embraced the social realism of the ashcan school, his exploration of color, composition, and spatial abstraction aligned him with the forward momentum of modern art. he was admired by contemporaries such as william glackens and arthur b. davies - who exhibited his work at the landmark armory show - and his work influenced later american modernists with its emphasis on formal harmony over narrative content. today, prendergast is recognized as a bridge between 19th-century impressionism and 20th-century abstraction, a singular artist whose contributions expanded the visual language of american painting. \n \n unframed; height: 11 1/4 in x width: 15 1/4 in. framed; height: 19 in x width: 23 in x depth: 1 in. \n condition: please email us at condition@revereauctions.com for a condition report

party, he renounced this training following the example of george grosz. his art during this time dealt extensively with the subject of human laughter, death, and murder, influenced heavily by the 1918 revolution and the works of the \"november grupe.\" while the early 1920s saw his works rendered in a hard-edged, quasi-mechanical figural style, by 1923 he shifted to more naturalistic portrayals of his subjects. in this work the subject of the title, the 'anarchist moro', may refer to cesar moro, a pen name of peruvian poet alfredo quispez asin. during moro's early years he lived and worked in paris, associating with the dada group and by association, schlichter. however, the figure depicted in the painting does not appear to be a representation of a real person. the 'anarchist moro' here is a representation the working class proletariat struck down by invasive government forces. the red dress of the woman, who reaches for a pistol, symbolizes the obsession with

the estate of gary fink. lot essay: ernst ludwig kirchner was a pivotal german expressionist painter and printmaker, best known as a founding member of die brucke (the bridge), a group that sought to create a new, modern artistic language bridging past traditions and contemporary innovations. inspired by artists such as albrecht durer, lucas cranach, and the international avant-garde, the group revived traditional media like woodcuts while rejecting academic conventions in favor of raw, direct expression. kirchner\u2019s berlin street scenes series, dynamic depictions of urban life and prostitution, became landmarks of expressionist art. his work was featured in the groundbreaking 1913 armory show in new york, which introduced modern european art to america. kirchner\u2019s life and career were deeply affected by the upheavals of the 20th century. volunteering for military service during world war i, he suffered a severe mental and physical breakdown that shaped much of his later art. he spent extended periods in davos, switzerland, where alpine landscapes and rural life inspired a new phase of creativity. kirchner mentored younger artists in the rot-blau group, maintained close ties with peers such as karl schmidt-rottluff and max pechstein, and developed an increasingly abstract style over the years. his work faced brutal suppression under the nazi regime, which labeled it \u201cdegenerate art\u201d and confiscated more than 600 of his pieces. despite this persecution, kirchner\u2019s influence endured. his paintings entered major u.s. collections in the 1920s, and his first solo american museum show opened in 1937. after his death in 1938 his reputation grew through retrospectives and international exhibitions. his legacy as a founder of german expressionism, a bridge between tradition and modernity, and a chronicler of both the vibrancy and anxieties of his era remains central to 20th-century art history. gary c. fink was a collector with

lewis (australian/american, 1881-1962). drypoint print on paper titled \"fifth avenue bridge, \" 1928. pencil signed along the lower right; from an edition of 108. reference: mccarron 72. provenance: paramour fine arts; from the estate of gary fink. lot essay: martin lewis (1880-1962) was a master american printmaker celebrated for his atmospheric etchings and drypoints of new york city and rural connecticut. born in castlemaine, australia, lewis emigrated to the u.s. in 1900, where he became known for his technical brilliance and striking compositions. though he worked as a commercial artist for years, he gained recognition in the 1920s for his fine art prints, quickly selling out editions during exhibitions and earning representation from kennedy galleries. a pivotal figure in early 20th-century american printmaking, lewis was also influential among his peers. he famously taught etching techniques to edward hopper, and his work demonstrates a deep appreciation for japanese aesthetics and european masters like whistler and rembrandt. lewis\u2019s journey into art began modestly; he showed early talent as a child in australia, eventually studying under thomas fisher levick for free before traveling through rural areas and artist colonies. his formal entry into printmaking came in 1915, and his artistic development was shaped by time abroad in london, wales, and especially japan, where he immersed himself in japanese print traditions. returning to new york in the 1920s, he abandoned commercial work to focus on his art. his prints from this period, like relics, which sold out quickly and appreciated rapidly in value, cemented his place among the top american printmakers of his time. a respected teacher at the art students league and a well-connected member of new york\u2019s artistic circles, lewis lived much of his life in the city but also spent time in connecticut with his wife, lucile deming, and their son. though he never achieved the same level of fame as some contemporaries, lewis\u2019s precise, moody renderings of urban and rural life remain highly sought after and admired for their technical mastery and evocative atmosphere. gary c. fink was a collector with both a lighthearted sense of humor and a serious commitment to art. through the museum louvre it or leave it, he offered minnesotans an offbeat, thought-provoking experience; through mia gifts, he broadened institutional collections; and through his scholarship, he continues to enable the next generation of artists. a renaissance soul in the heart of minnesota\u2019s art community, gary c. fink was more than an astute collector - he was a spirited patron whose unconventional vision left an indelible mark on the creative landscape. \n \n sight;

experiences that deeply informed her evolving visual language rooted in cubism and spatial awareness. nevelson\u2019s breakthrough came in 1941 with her first solo show at nierendorf gallery, where she debuted sculptures constructed from boxes - an innovation that became a defining feature of her work. by the mid-1940s, she began using found objects, which she believed carried their own histories and emotional weight. these materials became central to her practice, assembled into massive, theatrical wall-like installations that explored both personal and universal themes. as her career progressed through the 1950s and beyond, she gained significant institutional recognition, her work collected by major museums and featured in exhibitions alongside the most influential artists of her era. nevelson became an icon not only for her art but also for her bold personal style and unwavering artistic vision. one of her final pieces, volcanic magic xvii, encapsulates the essence of nevelson\u2019s lifelong exploration of space, texture, and storytelling. unlike her earlier monochrome works, this sculpture uses a gradient of browns to create depth, suggesting a maturation of her visual vocabulary. it features quintessential nevelson elements - wooden fragments, chair parts, fabric, and metal - all arranged in a frame evocative of her classic box structures. yet, the work invites more subtle engagement: the worn, broken chair parts spark questions about their origin, suggesting narratives that the viewer must piece together. in this way, nevelson's genius lies not only in assembling objects but in creating spaces for imaginative participation, ensuring that the stories she resurrected continue to evolve with each new encounter. \n \n height: 32 in x width: 41 in x depth: 4 in. \n condition: please email us at condition@revereauctions.com for a condition report or additional photos."},"estimateMax":12000,"lotNumber":"62","title":{"en":"louise nevelson \"volcanic magic xvii\" 1985"},"url":"https://us.bidspirit.com/ui/lotPage/revereauctions/source/catalog/auction/64492/lot/31842/view","tags":["usart_sculpture","usart","usart_all"],"directSalePrice":5000,"soldPrice":8500,"lastUpdate":"2026-08-11T18:30:24.054Z","textCase":"lower","estimate":"$8,000 -

from the estate of gary fink. lot essay: william hadd mcelcheran began his artistic training as a painter, though he gradually turned his attention to the expressive possibilities of sculpture. working in three dimensions allowed him to explore the physicality, presence, and symbolic weight of the human figure. he was particularly drawn to classical traditions, admiring the balance, theatricality, and emotional intensity found in renaissance and baroque art. early in his career, mcelcheran produced religious works shaped by his spiritual upbringing, often using solitary figures to express themes of suffering, sacrifice, and shared human experience. as his focus moved beyond explicitly religious subjects, this archetypal figure evolved. it became the modern businessman, not a hero or ideal, but a reflection of the ordinary individual shaped by the pressures of contemporary life. for mcelcheran, the businessman was far more than a symbol of corporate culture. he represented a modern \"everyman, \" a figure through which the artist reimagined the classical hero. rather than celebrating personal greatness or transcendence, mcelcheran presented an anti-ideal, a character defined less by individual will than by systemic conformity. as he observed, \"our time has produced a particularly poignant version of the everyman, the corporate man, defined more by his environment than by any sense of interiority.\" the familiar image of the suited figure, briefcase in hand, was what mcelcheran called \"the package he puts himself in, \" a uniform shaped by duty and social expectation. these men, he noted, \"are not in positions of power, \" but operate within vast organizational structures that both support and limit them. far from satire, mcelcheran's sculptures offer a quiet, incisive critique of postwar corporate life, evoking the quiet dignity and isolation of individuals absorbed into institutional systems. gary c. fink was a collector with both a lighthearted sense of humor and a serious commitment to art. through the museum louvre it or leave it, he offered minnesotans an offbeat, thought-provoking experience;
