The Art of Woods - Blues and/or Purples

The Art of Woods
in Blues and/or Purples

It's wonderful to find most of the major art museums in the world with their art collections online with quality images. However it glaringly exposes those museums' cultural past practice of gender discrimination. Thus this selection below is only men. Fortunately art museums have recognized this past gender bias and are correcting it.

Henri-Edmond Cross, born Henri-Edmond-Joseph Delacroix in 1856, was a French painter and printmaker. He was a significant influence on Henri Matisse as well as other artists. Cross is known as a master of Neo-Impressionism, playing an important role in shaping the second phase of that movement and his work was instrumental in the development of Fauvism.

Pieter Cornelis Mondriaan (1872-1944), after 1906 known as Piet Mondrian, was a Dutch painter and art theoretician who is regarded as one of the great artists of the 20th century. He is known for being one of the pioneers of 20th-century abstract art. He changed his artistic direction from figurative painting to an increasingly abstract style, until he reached a point where his artistic vocabulary was reduced to simple geometric elements.

About this work Piet Mondrian said, "This painting, painted in 1908, is very important to me because it was before the painting Square Canvases that made me famous. Before Square, I was a landscape artist, and let me tell you - I loved to fool myself with the avant-garde. The forest landscape is actually a painting in the Fauvist school, like the one we see at the Festival of Random Colors, part of a forest on the Dutch outskirts of Amsterdam. But in this work, you can also see how I distanced myself from the traditional perspective and gradually approached my characteristic abstraction by using straight lines and primary colors."

Werner Drewes (1899-1985) was a painter, printmaker, and art teacher. Considered to be one of the founding fathers of American abstraction, he was one of the first artists to introduce concepts of the Bauhaus school within the United States. Drewes was as highly regarded for his printmaking as much as for his painting. He was a university professor at Washington University in St. Louis.

Marsden Hartley (1877-1943), the youngest of nine children was born in Lewiston, Maine, was an American Modernist painter, poet, and essayist. Hartley developed his painting abilities by observing Cubist artists in Paris and Berlin. Two of Hartley's Cezanne-inspired still life paintings and six charcoal drawings were selected to be included in the landmark 1913 Armory Show in New York. He traveled widely to paint. In 1930 he spent the summer and fall painting mountains in New Hampshire. He finally returned to Maine in 1937, after declaring that he wanted to become "the painter of Maine" and depict American life at a local level. For the remainder of his life he worked in Maine locations including Georgetown, Vinalhaven, Brooksville, Corea, and Mt. Katahdin until his death from congestive heart failure in Ellsworth in 1943. His ashes were scattered on the Androscoggin River.

When Wolf Kahn moved to Vermont in 1968, he found inspiration in the rural landscapes of New England. Kahn would often use vivid hues and natural light to infuse warmth and vibrancy into his works. In Violet Woods, purples, blues, pinks and bright yellow dance across the sky, while energetic trees spring forth from an electric green ground. Through his use of broad and quick brushstrokes, the artist conveyed a sense of movement and energy.

Paul Klee's unique style was influenced by movements in art that included expressionism, cubism, and surrealism. His art studies began in 1898 in Munich. Later he was involved with the German Expressionist group Der Blaue Reiter, founded by Wassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc. He and Kandinsky, both taught at the Bauhaus school of art, design and architecture in Germany. His works reflect his dry humor and his sometimes childlike perspective, his personal moods and beliefs, and his musicality.

March Avery - Nudes and Self Portrait

March Avery
 Nudes and Self Portrait

Source many various online:
The Avery Style, seen in the works of father Milton (1885-1965), regarded as a major American bridge between Realism and Abstract Expressionism, mother Sally (1902-2003) a working illustrator then full time painter, and daughter March (1932- ), a full time painter, reduces elements to a simplicity of forms, eliminating most details, and developing flattened interlocking shapes with strong colors. March's art includes her usual signature palette of rosy pink, dusty yellow, ochre, and cobalt. While her parents only sketched, March often uses a camera when documenting subject matter, as well as sketching, for initial documentation.
        While growing up, when March Avery showed her father, Milton, a painting, his response was "Paint another one." March Avery believes her father wanted her to become an artist. She said, "I knew no one but artists, so I knew that is all I would ever be." Her mom, Sally, an illustrator, supported their family for years until Milton's art started selling. His art sold well. But Sally didn't really come into her own artistically until her father died and had a long career for her next thirty-eight years.
        March married her college boyfriend Philip Cavanaugh (circa 1932-2022) in 1952 and graduated from Barnard College in 1954 with a degree in philosophy. She supported him for many years until he earned a doctorate in English. Once he had a diploma and a steady job, she quit her city job and continued painting full time. Her gallery exhibitions began nine years later with her first solo exhibition in 1963, continuing today. March and Philip's son, Sean (1969- ), is also a painter, though not in The Avery Style.

Female Painter
Milton Avery (1885-1965) American
Oil on canvas, 40" x 32" (w x h), 1945
Christies auction estimate $1,500,000 $2,500,000 USD

Why I enjoy this painting:

Milton Avery uses orange and blue as important color elements, in a semi-abstract composition. The orange shapes float, the focus of the figure and what she's doing. The blues, two tones, can be seen as one, or two, while creating a background for the upper part of the figure to float, this focusing the eye. The red/pink are there, supporting the rest of the painting, the dark read as an anchor. And the tension of the paintbrush about to touch the canvas. You see that brush's tip as about to touch the canvas, based on the figure, and not pulling away having touched it, don't you? And you can imagine what Sally is painting. See six of Sally's figure painting's below.

Throughout their lives, Milton and his wife Sally Michel Avery shared their studio space together, painting side by side, critiquing each other's work, while developing a shared style using abstracted subjects, color fields, and harmonious unusual colors juxtapositions. Their daughter, March, is a painter, too, and in the same style, still painting at 91 years-old in 2024.

Sally, Milton's painter wife, explained that he was always more focused on color and form than the underlying subject itself, recounting, "His problem was always a painter's problem, which had nothing to do with actually what he was painting. He really thought in terms of shapes and spaces and colors and things like that. And the subject was just something that he used to start a move on this other journey." (Oral history interview with Sally Michel Avery, 1967 November 3. Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution)

Wolfgang Suschitzky, B.S.C. (British Society of Cinematographers) (1912-2016), was an Austrian-born British documentary photographer, as well as a cinematographer known for his work on Mike Hodges' 1971 film, Get Carter.

This photo is from his book:
Charing Cross Road in the Thirties
Photographs by Wolf Suschitzky
The Photo Library 9
Dirk Nishen Publishing, London, UK, 1989

From the "introduction" and various sources:
"Charing Cross Road in the 1930s was far from being a respectable street. It was a nighttime pleasure street, a promiscuous mix of activities. Foyles was the bookstore, a fabled place, "the largest bookstore in the world," all five floors. Also on Charing Cross Road in the 1930s was Zwemmer's, the first serious art booksellers in England, plus the second-hand books shops, the staple of the Charing Cross trade. Pornography was a feature of the Charring Cross trade, the goods sometimes secreted in underground showrooms. Marks, Poole's and Josephs made a specialty of art nudes."
        A brass plaque on the stone pilaster facing Charing Cross Road commemorates the former bookshop, Foyles, and Helen Hanff's charming classic long-distance love affair novel, has the bookstore as a central character in the noted book (1970) and film (1987), starring Ann Bancroft and Anthony Hopkins, 84 Charring Cross Road. In the Harry Potter books, the Leaky Cauldron pub is on Charing Cross Road. Author J.K. Rowling chose this road because "it is famous for its bookshops, both modern and antiquarian. This is why I wanted it to be the place where those in the know go to enter a different world."

Henri Matisse (1869-1954)) French
Oil on canvas, 29" x 36" (w x h), 1910
Hermitage, St. Petersburg, Russia

Source State Hermitage Museum, Saint Petersburg, Russia notes edited:
The interaction between the flowers and the human figure forms the central theme. The strong stems of the tulips forcing themselves upwards in an expression of the coming spring, the thick green color of the sharp leaves, everything carries within it the energy of growth. Nature and human together form a harmonious whole.
        Jeanne Vaderin, the model for this painting, was in convalescence at Issey-les-Moulineaux, where Matisse rented a house in 1910. Matisse and his wife affectionately called her Jeannette. In this painting there is something gentle and melancholy, something fragile and refined in the face and slightly asymmetrical figure of Jeanette. "My models, the figures of people, are never static elements in an interior. They are the main theme of my work," wrote Matisse in 1908, two years previous to this painting. Jeannette was also his model for a number of other works, including a series of bronze heads.

Source" MOMA notes edited:
In the process of creating five busts of Jeanne Vaderin, affectionately known to Matisse and his wife as Jeannette, between 1910 and 1916, Matisse radically reconfigured traditional representation of the human face. Jeannette I and II were created directly from the model, which is evident in their characteristic, hawk-like profiles.
        These two works then served as templates for Jeannette III, IV, and V. As he progressed with the series, Matisse dramatically abstracted his subject, organizing the head into increasingly simplified chunks. In 1908 he'd explained that his goal in portraiture was not to achieve visual precision but rather to reveal the "essential qualities" of his sitters, qualities, he felt, that physical imitation could not capture.
