Description
This lot consists of a hand painted Oil on Canvas rendered in the style of the Chinese American Yun Gee (1906-1963)
Artist, poet, philanthropist, teacher, writer, and inventor Yun Gee was the first Chinese-American artist to hold an important position in the history of Western contemporary art. Considered one of the great modernist avant-garde painters, Gee enjoys a number of other “firsts.” He was the first Chinese-born artist invited to join the Société des Artistes Indépendants; the first Chinese artist to display his work internationally; the first Chinese artist to show at MoMa; and the first Chinese artist to show in the salons of Paris. His art made frequent reference to his Chinese heritage either through form, style, or subject matter. He also developed his own signature style, Diamondism, which was derived from Cubism, and he promoted it through his art, writings, and teachings.
DIMENSIONS:
Unframed 20"x16" (51x41cm)
Framed 23"x19" (59x49cm)
