Date: 1961
Medium: pastel on paper
Artist: Abish
Unframed size (in inches): approximately 11 W x 8.5 H
Framed size (in inches): approximately 16 W x 13.75 H
Signed: “Abish ‘61” lower right
Condition: excellent vintage condition
Framing: Original gilt wood frame and glass with recent new mat added; vintage condition to original gilt frame; moderate scratches and chips to gilding.
This colorful original piece would make an excellent addition to a gallery wall or provide a highlight to any vignette. The artist explores abstract shapes in cool shades of blue, accented by pops of yellow, further defining the negative space in the work. This piece was originally displayed at the Hicks Street Gallery in Brooklyn, which was open c. 1958-1970. Contemporaries of the artist would have included the New York School, the group of American and European artists working in mid-century New York creating what is broadly referred to as “abstract expressionism.”
