“Girl,” 1961, Cornelis Ruhtenberg (1923-2008), now available. Mesmerizing mid-century figurative. Ruhtenberg explored neither psychological insight nor the appearance of her subjects, seeking instead pure, essential meaning. She depicted her sitters caught in their own contemplative worlds. https://www.liveauctioneers.com/.../167360454_cornelis...

"She believed that photographs could help change people's minds." It was the Great Depression that spurred Dorothea Lange to turn to documentary photography. Beginning her career as a studio photographer, she began to see people in need on the streets.

He died more than a century ago. Yet Cezanne can feel perpetually new. "He was an artistic nomad," in and out of the Impressionist movement, shuttling between Paris and Aix-en-Provence.

A major retrospective of Philip Evergood is long overdue. A leading Modernist of the 20th Century, Evergood combined abstraction & realism, with subjects in the 1930s that made him also one of the leading Social Realists of the period.
"Wonders of the Frog," 1960s, Philip Evergood (1901-1973). private collection.

New York's transformation in the 20th Century into a vibrant, modern city is largely thanks to a cohort of radical women artists, a new book says.

"He transformed photography as a tool of artistic expression with radical darkroom techniques & keen involvement with Surrealism. Now, his impact can be felt in not just the art world, but in fashion and even pop culture."
