Fernand Léger: The Original Granddaddy of Pop Art
3 of 3 on our series of the legendary paintings of Fernand LégerThis is the last installment of my three part series on the legendary paintings of an extraordinary artist. Although I am certain that this won’t be the last time that his name or work will come up on this blog. I thought it was interesting that Fernand Léger joined the Communist party once he returned to France in 1945 after living in the US. During that time, he made a rather large mosaic for the church of Assy between 1945-1949. Léger did the decor for the ballet Le pas d’acier, in Paris in 1948, and continued to produced several book illustrations.Fernand Léger, La Joie De Vivre, 1955Signed F.

It was there that he established his ceramic workshop. In 1960 a Léger museum was created in Biot in honor of his vast contribution to the art world. During the later part of his life, he made several designs for a number of stained glass windows, and painted murals for the assembly hall of the United Nations. I am attracted to the fact that Fernad Léger could of painted a number or top officials, and high society folks, but instead directed his body of work towards honoring the life of ordinary people.

Sotheby’s Impressionist & Modern Art Evening Sale
Salvador Dali’s Printemps nécrophilique will be part of Sotheby’s evening sale this coming Wednesday evening. It has not appeared on the market in nearly 15 years. This work was painted by the master at the height of his most creative years in Paris. The canvas exemplifies Dali’s unique aesthetic at its most refined and sensational.Legends & Icons – Vyna’s Top Picks
ProlificAndy Warhol, Double Elvis [Ferus Type], 1963Estimation: $30/50 MillionThis is the first Double Elvis to appear on the market since 1995. This is a seminal piece from the iconic series devoted to the singer and actor that was first seen at the Ferus gallery in Los Angeles that very same year. The celebrities of Warhol’s portraits – Marilyn Monroe, Jackie Kennedy, among others – were presented as glamorous and powerful icons whose image was imprinted on the public consciousness.
Iconic BeautyRoy Lichenstein, Sleeping Girl, 1964, Oil and Magna on canvas, Painted between 1961 and 1965Signed and DatedEstimated $30/40 MillionThe beautiful women of Roy Lichenstein’s comic book series are not only one of the most instantly recognizable icons of the Pop Art movement but continue the long, rich tradition of artists’ celebrations of the sleeping female form. Paintings from this series are featured in teh collections of major institutions throughout the world such as the Museum of Modern Art, New York. Sleeping Girl has not appeared in the market since 1964.
Honoré Daumier, Ratapoil, Bronzeconceived in 1850, and cast circa 1892Daumier was a prolific draftsman who produced well over 100 sculptures, and thousands of other paintings, lithographs, drawings and engravings. He was perhaps best known for his caricatures of political figures and satires on the behavior of his French countrymen.
Francis Bacon, Self Portrait, and Alexander Calder White Discs on a PyramidPainted metal and wire standing mobile, Executed in 1965Sotheby’s will auction off Francis Bacon’s Figure Writing Reflected In Mirror (which will talk about later on this blog). I particular liked this self portrait of his (pictured in the left). Along with the Figure Writing Reflected In Reflected Mirror, this one was also included in the legendary 1977 exhibition at Galerie Claude Bernard, in Paris.Collections sometimes reflect the collectors in some way. The work that they choose to put around them show the power, reflection, the confidence that they themselves manifest in their lives. Surrealism is an area which is very hot in the current market right now. It’s probably the last of the great ism of 20th century art that is truly appreciated. Maybe it’s because it crosses over very effectively from the beginning to the end of the 20th century. The great painters, René Magritte and Salvador Dali are two artists that are incredibly desirable. Dali’s best work is from his prime period – the late 1920s to the 1930s. The Printemps Nécrophilique is a rare find for any auction house. It will take a long post to talk about all of the beautiful art that is up on the auction block at Sotheby’s Impressionist & Modern Art Day and Evening Sale this coming Wednesday, May 2nd, but for the sake of brevity, I will only talk about one of Dali’s masterpiece. Look for other posts regarding the sale, at a later time on this blog.
Marc Chagall, Le Peintre en Jaune, circa 1978
Pastel, gouache, watercolor and oil on paperStamped with Signature Marc ChagallRussian-French artist Marc Chagall was best known for several major artistic styles, was one of the most successful artists of the 20th century. His avant-garde paintings set him apart as an early modernist.
Willem De Kooning, Seated Woman, Executed 1969/1980De Kooning was part of a group of artists that came to be known as the New York School. Other painters in this group included Jackson Pollock, Franz Kline, Arshile Gorky, Mark Rothko, Hans Hofmann, Adolph Gottlieb, Robert Motherwell, Philip Guston and Clyfford Still. The Seated Woman is one of his most extraordinary sculpture. A similar work, Seated Woman on a Bench, from 1972 (cast 1976), is at the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden.
René Magritte, oil on canvasMargritte was a Surrealist giant. His body of work challenged observers’ preconditioned perceptions of reality. His work displayed a collection of ordinary objects in an unusual context, giving new meanings to familiar things. Regarding the way he arranged seemingly unrelated objects together in juxtaposition, he once said “It is a union that suggests the essential mystery of the world. Art for me is not an end in itself, but a means of evoking that mystery.”Alexander Calder Sculptures

Signed on the cover, each with the publisher’s stamp.Property from the Estate of Theodore J. ForstmannPhotos courtesy High End Weekly™All rights reservedPrintemps Nécrophilique is from 1936, and it is one of the finest paintings on the market today. This piece doesn’t have some of the disturbing elements that you often get from Dali’s paintings. It is a beautiful image of a woman whose head is adorned in flowers, and the young boy on her side is a self portrait alter ego of Dali. They seem to be separated by this cypress tree, which is another element from Dali’s recurring paintings. The scale of the picture is unusual, perhaps because to find one that is quite as large from the 1930s is extremely rare. Salvador Dali is unbelievably brave in his use of space. Only the great Dali could say that I am going to paint this in a minimalistic, porcelain-like way, and leave the right part of this painting totally empty. Only Dali could do such a thing. During the press conference for this sale, one of the curators explained how the first owner of this work was a very interesting individual. She was an Italian couturier called Elsa Schiaparelli – the subject of an upcoming show at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Elsa was an important figure in the 1920s and 1930s in Paris who collaborated with Dali quite allot. She made a version of this dress which represented what is fabric and what is flesh merged together as one. Printemps Nécrophilique is estimated between $8-10 Million. -
Fernand Léger: The Original Granddaddy of Pop Art
2 of 3 on our series of the legendary paintings of Fernand LégerFernand Léger’s work in the 1920s made his international reputation. They combined that certain quality of surrealism and the strong characteristic of the plain forms which he came to be known for. His work was also associated with Purism and with the De Stijl artists. In 1924, he made the film Mechanical Ballet with renowned artist, Man Ray. The paintings he created in the 1920s were done for architectural settings, they were mainly abstract, while others used simplified motifs.

Fernand Léger, February 4, 1881 – August 17, 1955Examples of these sorts were included in Le Corbusier’s Pavillon de l’Esprit Nouveau at the Paris Decorative Arts exhibition in 1925. Léger was fascinated with technology, machinery and the increased speed with which modern life was being lived. He translated this fascination into his art by simplifying forms into tubular structures and reducing colors to monochromes, primaries and secondaries. His need to conjure up the intense and unsettling experience of modern life was quite apparent in all his paintings.

Fernand Léger: The Original Granddaddy of Pop Art
1 of 3 on our series of the legendary paintings ofFernand LégerWith all the glory that later came as being a blue chip artist, Fernand Léger’s career spans from early investigations of painting as a means of capturing modern sensations in abstract and near abstract dynamic compositions to heroic images of common life in terms that admit their debt to the great tradition of French classicism and to folk art.Adam and Eve, 1934, Fernand Léger. Image via ARTinvestmentHis paintings affirmed contemporary life as well as art’s energies. After years of admiring the granddaddy of pop art, I was able to collect (via the power of Google, of course) dozens of his art work – the ones that spoke directly to me.

He was a trained architect who moved to Paris at the turn of the 20th Century. While living in the city of lights, he studied painting, moved in the social circle of the great artists at that time: Apollinaire, the Delaunays and the poet Cendras. His art was deeply influenced by Cézanne. After the showing of his first major paintings in 1911, he developed his form of Cubism, dominated contrasts of form and color, positive and negative, at times in abstract compositions.

Mid-20th-Century Style
Modern LoveThroughout the 20th century, the products, styles, theories and philosophies of design have become evermore diverse. No doubt this was due to the growing complexity of the design process, and the changing taste of the costumer. In the last century, design has existed as a major feature of culture and everyday life. It was seen as an instrument for improving the quality of life. I have a special fondness for decorative arts from the 1950s because it was a period of renewal and optimism in America.Jacaranda Lounge Chairs from Brazil, circa 1970sfrom R20th
Designers and artists were creating some of the most memorable art and objects. New materials such as plastic laminates, latex foam, fiberglass shaped the look of the mid 20th century. Designers were appealing to consumers’ growing aspirations by producing streamlined and forward-looking products that were the embodiment of the American Dream. The home became the very focus of that dream, and designers helped to shape it.

Worldwide, this trend can be found in some of the most diverse spaces. I am quite partial to it since it was so glamorous, so stream-lined, so chic! If you share the same sentiment, then there is no better place to be than at the inaugural New York 20th Century Art and Design fair by 1stDibs. This event will take place under the tent at Lincoln Center in Damrosch Park from Friday, April 13th until Sunday, the 15th.

Why does Tamara de Lempicka still matters?
Her avant-garde paintings have been collected by celebrities like Madonna, and Barbara Streisand. It could be because both of these alpha females are well known for their progressive thinking, and at times, been viewed as feminists. Tamara de Lempicka was certainly a pioneering artist whom such women (and men) would be attracted to. Her work occupied an important position in the “Roaring Twenties” Paris. Her aesthetic embodied the spirit of the Art Deco era and its sense of style and modernity. When she completed the Nu adossé I in 1925, she was just establishing herself as a painter of serious consideration. On the evening of May 2nd 2012, Sotheby’s New York will be auctioning Nu adossé I, a work which most art historians have thought to be lost since the 1920s. The last time anyone have seen this painting in public was more than 85 years ago!Striking BeautyTamara de Lempicka, Nu adossé I, Painted in 1925Est. $3/5 million
Photo of 1925 ExhibitionAlain Blondel, Tamara de Lempicka, Catalogue raisonné 1921-1979, Lausanne, 1999,no. 73, illustrated p. 26Photos courtesy Sotheby’sIt is a classic example of the artist’s elegant and sensuous aesthetic and was included in her groundbreaking solo exhibition at Milan’s Bottega di Poesia gallery in 1925, the same year it was painted. Following that exhibition, the painting effectively disappeared from view until Sotheby’s was contacted by the owner late last year. The work will be shown in London, prior to exhibition and sale in New York this spring. The whereabouts of Nu adossé I have been unknown for most of its recorded history. The catalogue raisonné for the artist, published in 1999, included an image of the present work (pictured above) taken at the Milan exhibition in 1925, and listed it as “location unknown.” In an era of modernity, de Lempicka still matters, and Nu adossé I was an exciting discovery, which fills an important art historical gap in the artist’s work. - Asia Week, Decorative Arts, Erik Thomsen, Fine Arts, Inc., Joe-Hynn Yang Courage and Joy, Ralph M.

Highlights from Asia Week New York 2012
The Strange Elizabethans
Growing up in Hong Kong, at times, the artist felt lost with her identity, and often envisioned the Chinese population as anonymous, but with a strong tie to England.
By artist Annysa Ng from China 2000 Fine Arts
Imperial PairsAlthough my taste in porcelain is much simpler than these, I was attracted to this pair because of their commending stand and beauty. Their provenance is most likely tied to another pair of identical vases from a garniture from the Jiaquing period as illustrated in the Treasure in Royalty: The Official Kiln Porcelain of the Quing Dynast, back in 2003.
From Ralph M. Chait Galleries.
Forced HappinessBeautiful carved wood prints, and works on pencil have become the signature of Pace Prints on East 57th – right across the street from the Fuller Building. The cynical sense of humor of artist Yue Minjun, creates a potent sense of what the political climate feels like in communist China.
Layered InThe one man show of artist Tai Xiangzhou is now on display at the Chinese Porcelain Company. Tai’s work (pictured in the background) is extensive, intense, and has a dreamlike quality about it.
He is the only existing artist whom have studied under Liu Dan.
Simple as a RingEric Zetterquist on East 66 Street has a great exhibition of some of the more well known Chinese porcelain from the 6th Century A.D. I liked the Japanese jade-like porcelain vase pictured here on the top left corner.
It has an acute simplicity, and the look is quite modern.
A finely carved painted pottery figure of a Fat Lady at Courage and Joy.The miniature statue looks right at home in its surroundings.
Closer LookCeramic technology reached its peaked and influenced the cultural tradition in ancient China and Japan. This plum blossom seemed simple, but upon closer look one discovers the masterful hands behind it. The roundness of the mouth is quite unusual, not to mention unique. While visiting Joe-Hynn’s exhibition, I got to explore the individual beauty and relationship between each one of his pieces. This is a finely potted green-glazed stoneware bottle vase, with a globular ‘garlic’ mouth from the Sui Dynasty (581-618 CE).
Old and NewI took this shot because it reminded me of the ancient world mixed with the new. Looking at the outside world from the windows of Erik Thomsen‘s gallery, I appreciated even more the contrast of the sereneness of this scroll, with the hustle and bustle of a New York City’s moment.
ExquisiteAlthough this is not included in the exhibit, I couldn’t help but share it with you. The black lacquer vase looked exceptionally pleasing, and so are the orchads for that matter. Agreed?
A warm welcome from two of the members of Carlton Rochell Asian Art
Symbol FigureThis authoritive figure – a Schist Bodhisattva Gandhara, circa 3rd Century – was a site to behold.
Carlton Rochell explained how they have been pursuing this particular piece for 30 years, and after it stayed a few monhts in their possession, they can happily report that it found a new home – an institution to be exact.
So WiseAncient scroll from Jiyoung Koo on East 72nd Street. This particular scroll was from the private library of a collector in New Jersey. It is understood that he had the piece for several years not realising the importance of the provenance.
Fly AwayI fail to remember the name of this artist, but remembered to take this picture since I loved it so much! In Japan, a butterfly is a symbol of abundance and wealth. This comtemporary piece can be found at Dai Ichi Arts.

Asia Week New York: March 16 – 24, 2012
“Asia Week New York provides an astonishing showcase for the strength and breath of material that this city offers in all disciplines of Asian art” said Howard-Sneyd, Sotherby’s Vice-Chairman Asian Art, Americas. “In a few short years, New York has become an essential destination for international collectors, curators, scholars, and Asian art enthusiasts alike.”Yue Minjun*The Grassland Series Woodcut – 200846 1/4 x 33 5/8 inches. Edition of 80Photo courtesy: Pace PrintsJudging from the impressive list of dealers, I was delighted to see that this year show promises to reach even greater heights. The week-long celebration will be filled with non-stop schedule of simultaneous gallery open houses, Asian art auctions, as well as myriads of museums and galleries exhibitions, lectures, and my personal favorite: special events. Right now, you can visit, www.AsiaWeekNewYork.com, in order to navigate through a detailed, 88-page guide, complete with maps. This guide is also available at the participating galleries, and auction houses (Christie’s, Doyle, iGavel, and Sotherby’s).A couple of prominent players will be entering the scene, this year. They include Chambers Fine Art, Erik Thomsen, Littleton & Hennessy Aisan Art, and Pace Prints, from New York; Francesca Galloway, Jonathan Tucker Antonia Tozer Asian Art, both from London, and Michael Woerner Oriental Art, from Bangkok.* Regarding Yue Minjun
Born in Daquing, China in 1962, Yue Minjun was lauded as one of the leading contemporary artists from China. He is an accomplished painter, sculptor and print maker whose signature motif of gleefully laughing figures as caricatures that reflect the contradictions and absurdities of contemporary life. The artist is often listed as a member of the cynical realism movement that emerged in China in the 1090s, which came of age in the wake of the socio-political upheaval created by the Tiananmen Square demonstrations in Beijing.
