DESCRIPTION:
This is a nice, vintage, original framed American Expressionist Modernism artwork painting. The painting is painted with a written section above the attached painted portion. The painting is painted on paper (see photos). The painting is framed in a wooden picture frame. The painting looks to be illegibly signed by the artist with initials at the end of the written portion at the top section (see photos). The painting is a vintage artwork by a prolific American artist. This painting is from an estate liquidation. This framed painting measures about 25 inches high, and it measures about 16.5 inches wide. The picture frame has some scratches, some scuffs, and wear (see photos). The painting and written portion are protected under glass (see photos and/or written description for the condition of this item).
Here is some information about this American artist:
John Connell (born 25 June 1940 in Atlanta, Georgia; died September 27, 2009 in Mariaville, Maine) was an American artist. His works included sculpture, painting, drawing, and writing.
Connell attended Brown University, in Providence, RI (1958–1960), the Art Students League, NY (1960–1961), and New York University (1962), where he studied Chinese print making. His first show was in New York in 1962
In the mid-1960s, he moved to California, where he worked as the set designer for the San Francisco Mime Troupe. In the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s, he worked primarily in the Southwestern United States, where he painted large murals and was visible in New Mexico's most respected art galleries, being part of the Santa Fe artist group Nerve and gaining a reputation for his large installations. He is particularly well known for his drawings, some of which are done in charcoal and spray paint and can be as large as twenty feet high and thirty feet wide.
Connell used plaster-of-Paris in the 1980s, and later turned to tar, paper, and wax, in large figurative sculptures. He also used bronze, cement, wood, and chicken wire. His works on paper sometimes include elements of collage. In the early 1980s, he mostly gave up using commercial paints and began making his own out of iron oxide and pigments. In later paintings, he used ashes, mud, and earth. His work has also included elements of writing and occasionally audio tape.[
Connell's influences included Hokusai, Rembrandt, Balzac, Dante, Giacometti, and De Kooning. Buddhism is a central theme, and he cited wabi as his aesthetic.
