FEB 2021 CATALOG 8. Estimates. The high and low estimate given for an item are solely a guideline based upon Barridoff Galleries’ approximation as to the range within which an item may be sold for at auction.

All purchases are subject to Maine sales tax (5.5%) unless the bidder is located outof-state and shipping is arranged by Barridoff Galleries or the bidder possesses a sales tax exemption number issued by or acceptable to Maine Revenue Services and presents to Barridoff Galleries a valid signed certificate acceptable to Maine Revenue Services stating that Barridoff Galleries does not have to withhold Maine sales tax on the purchase. Maine sales tax is applicable to the full purchase price, which includes the hammer price plus the premium under paragraph 4. 10.

The regulating authority of this auction is the Board of Licensing of Auctioneers, 35 State House Station, Augusta ME 04333-0035. 12.

MARY LEIGH-SMART, BEVERLY HALLAM AND SURF POINT FOUNDATION
S
urf Point Foundation in York, Maine, sits on over 40 acres of picturesque ocean front property – with a rocky shoreline, dramatic light, and misty gray-blue blur of color that is distinctly Maine. A residency for the visual arts community, Surf Point Foundation is the dream of two friends: Mary-Leigh Smart and Beverly Hallam, whose lives converged through art over the course of a 50+ year friendship. Mary-Leigh Smart (1917-2017) was an art collector and patron. Born in Illinois, her family purchased a house in Maine and spent their first summer in Ogunquit in 1918. Ogunquit was then in its prime as an art colony, and Mary-Leigh grew up spending summers there with her artist mother. Her mother was influenced by artist Charles Woodbury. Woodbury founded one of the most successful summer art colony schools and was one of the founders, along with Gertrude Fiske, of the Ogunquit Art Association. From 1929 through the 1930s, the Call family spent two months of each summer in Europe. “It was during these summer trips that [Mary-Leigh] became fluent in French and studied art history for three hours each morning at the Louvre with Bertha Fanning Taylor, the English language lecturer.”1 Mary-Leigh attended Wellesley College and received a M.A. from Columbia University. In 1951, Mary-Leigh she married Jack Smart, a painter, sculptor, and star of radio, stage, and film best known for his role on the radio detective show “The Fat Man.” They built a house and settled in Ogunquit. Together they founded Barn Gallery Associates. Mary-Leigh would continue to be affiliated with museums in Maine throughout the rest of her life. Beverly Hallam (1923-2013) was born in Massachusetts. She studied at the Massachusetts College of Art and in 1953, received an M.F.A. from Syracuse University. Following the completion of her time at Syracuse, she returned to “Mass Art” as an art teacher. For the next fifteen years, she taught painting, drawing, and design. She also introduced the first photography and theater arts courses.
IMAGE CREDIT In 1949, Beverly began spending Courtesy of Surfpoint Foundation summers in Ogunquit, where she IMAGE DESCRIPTION was introduced to the Ogunquit Mary Leigh Smart & Beverly Hallam Arts Association. Beverly relocated to Maine in 1962, purchased a studio on Shore Road in Ogunquit and began to paint full time. Beverly was among the first artists to experiment with polyvinyl acetate which would become more commonly known as acrylic. She became a master of the medium and traveled extensively, demonstrating its use. Working in acrylics, she created the seascapes, rock formations and large semiabstract florals that she is now known for. It was this new medium that would be the catalyst for the intersection of Smart’s and Hallam’s lives. Mary-Leigh had been tasked with choosing the lectures for the Ogunquit Art Association. She reached out to Beverly to speak about polyvinyl acetate, and thus began the friendship between the Smarts and Hallam. It was after the death of Jack Smart that Mary-Leigh would purchase the 46+ acre oceanfront property. Smart and Hallam then worked with architects Carter + Woodruff to build their duplex, Surf Point, on the property. The two envisioned that the home in which they lived for nearly 50 years would become a residency for artists and art professionals to think, connect, and create. This vision was led by the idea that supporting and encouraging artists would allow them the safe space to focus and create or complete a body of work. Friends of Smart and Hallam say that the two began planning the artist colony as early as the 1970s, but the Foundation was legally established in 1988. Surf Point Foundation welcomed its first residents in 2019, honoring the vision long ago articulated by its founders. Smart and Hallam shared in their commitment to excellence, generosity, and devotion to the Maine art community.

WILLIAM WEGMAN
“Shooting outside presents certain logistical difficulties. Polaroid film likes to be 68 degrees. Colder and it looks cloudy, milky, purple. Light streaks in through the bellows. Dust blows on the wet print. Wind kicks up suddenly and the picture becomes a sail. The camera likes to be in a nice clean room, warm, and level. Its little wheels are useless on the sandy, rocky, swampy shore of a Maine lake. We came to the conclusion the camera has no business being outside. During bad weather, we set the camera up inside my log cabin. After the lights were set up and the drying racks brought in, the space became ludicrously cramped. My sister, Pam, who recently moved into the house next door to mine at the lake had a dog named Liebe. Liebe was not a good dog. Even my sister Pam will tell you that. Liebe would not sit still for a second. For 1/60th of a second? Just. By sheer persistence, I managed to pull off one work: Man Ray & Mrs. Lubner (that was Liebe) in Bed Watching TV. After each strobe blast she bolted, taking lights and set with her. Finally, after several takes. I got the shot.” 16

AMOS FERGUSON
“
Like the griot of ancient Africa and the sage of Europe, Mr. Amos Ferguson is arguably most important as storyteller, philosopher and teacher. It is incidental, though an added feature, that he has been inspired to use paint as his medium of expression. What is most important is that he continues a visual tradition passing on the folk history of our people to future generations…Mr. Ferguson presents an identity that goes far beyond the ‘sand and sea.’ His prolific production demonstrates to the world the rich and diverse heritage the reinforces a unique Bahamian culture, people and environment.” ~an excerpt from the film Amos Ferguson – Match Me If You Can Amos Ferguson (1920-2009) was one of the Bahamas’ best known intuitive artists. Born in Exuma in 1920, he was one of fourteen children. He attended Roker’s Point Primary School and worked and maintained a small farm with his father who was a Baptist preacher and carpenter. Amos set off for Nassau at the age of 14 to learn a trade of his own, first trying his hand at carpentry, upholstery, and ultimately painting. During World War II, the U.S. was suffering from a shortage of labor and contracted with Bahamian men to come and pick fruit. Ferguson decided to go abroad as a contract worker. He spent 5 years and 11 months as a migrant laborer in Minnesota, Florida, and Virginia. Upon his return to the Bahamas, Ferguson earned a living painting houses and signs. His attention shifted to art in his forties, after receiving a message in a dream conveyed IMAGE CREDIT to him by his nephew. According National Art Gallery of the Bahamas to his nephew’s dream, Jesus IMAGE DESCRIPTION came out of the sea with a Amos Ferguson painting in his hands and said that Mr. Ferguson was wasting his talent for painting.

Beatrice took the paintings to the market with her where they became popular with tourists but remained largely unnoticed by Bahamians. During this time, his focus centered on painting his visions, observations, and other subjects that held deep, personal meaning to him. The result was the vibrantly colored bible stories and depictions of Bahamian life that became his distinctly Caribbean signature. He began exhibiting his work at galleries in the Bahamas in 1972. Widespread recognition came to him after 1978, when Sukie Miller, an American collector, bought several of his paintings. She showed them to Ute Stebich, a dealer in Haitian art in Lenox, Mass. The women traveled back to Nassau to photograph his work. The images were sent to the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum in Hartford, Connecticut in the hopes that the museum would purchase some of Ferguson’s work. Throughout the late 70s-early 80s, his local reputation grew and appreciation for his work had

begun to spread outside of his community. The turning point in Ferguson’s career came in 1985 when the Wadsworth organized the exhibition, Paint by Mr. Amos Ferguson, comprised of fifty of his paintings. The exhibition traveled the world for two years and served to establish Ferguson on the international folk-art scene. He continued painting through the final years of his life, in spite of failing eyesight. Amos Ferguson died in Nassau in October 2009.
“To paint, the Lord gives you a vision, a sight that you go by,” he once told a reporter. “But don’t forget you have to see and check that Bible and don’t forget God. And the more you keep up with your Bible, and get the understanding, the better you paint.” The body of Ferguson’s work from his paintings to sculptures, is a lesson in authenticity. He relied on his imagination, his religious tradition, his personal relationship with God, and his own memories for inspiration and subject matter. Whether consciously, or an aspect of his own spirited personal truth, Ferguson rejected the traditional artistic narrative. His independence led him to use the LOT 15 modest materials that were available to him and to find AMOS FERGUSON his voice while challenging longstanding ideas about what (Bahamian 1920-2009) can be considered art and who should be considered an Mermaid and Red Sailboat artist.

L
uce Turnier (1924-1995) was a pioneer of Haitian art and is one of Haiti’s bestknown artists. She was born in Jacmel in 1924. Luce and her family relocated to Port-au-Price following the 1935 Haiti hurricane which had devasted the towns of Jacmel and Jérémie in southern Haiti. She began painting in 1944 when she enrolled as a student at Le Centre d’Art in Port-au-Prince where she became one of the art school/gallery’s few founding female members. Le Centre d’Art would prove to be a cornerstone for Haitian art as it was founded at a time in Haiti’s history when there were no galleries or public art schools. During the late 1940s-1950s Haitian artists began to emerge onto the global scene. Concurrently, European and U.S. audiences began to form stereotypes about what Haitian art should look like and what style of Haitian art would be considered market worthy. As McCarthyism prevailed in the U.S., the Haitian Renaissance was in full bloom. The combination resulted in a decided lack of interest in emerging Haitian modernist art.
“At the beginning…painting was not sellable. It started to be sellable (in Haiti) twelve years ago, I wasn’t here (in Haiti.) I said to myself, ‘if I have been waiting 35 years without being commercial, why should I start now?”
20
In the 1950s, Luce received scholarships from the French and Haitian governments to study abroad. She left Haiti to study in New York and then Paris. In 1954 she married Italian painter, Eugenio Carpi de Resmini with whom she had two children. The couple would eventually split. In 1965 she was remarried to French painter, Christian Lemesle whose work was considered abstract influenced by surrealism. It was during this time that she began to produce work that was free of the outside influence and the pressures of what looked “Haitian.” Her work became more abstract and she experimented with collage which resulted in art that was influenced solely by her need to continue to work and create. In a 1983 interview for the Chicago Gallery of Haitian Art, Turnier states that she considered 1965-1972 in Paris to be the period during which she experienced the most growth. “That was more abstract, that’s a special period…That’s the time in my life that I had more concentration in my own life…That’s when I started collage for the first time.” She continues, “I didn’t meet people. I didn’t have any stimulation except I had the desire to survive as a painter; to survive without any stimulation, without any public…nor anybody around to tell me what I was doing was good. It was a difficult period because my husband was a painter and he didn’t want me to, even if he doesn’t want me to, I will survive...” After returning to Haiti in 1972, Turnier had settled into her own and had gained notoriety within her home country and abroad. In 1978 she exhibited at the French Institute of Haiti and participated in several exhibitions showcasing the work of female artists. She continued to work in collage until her death in Paris in 1994.

LOUIS SCHANKER
ouis Schanker lived his life against the grain. As a teenager he studied briefly at Cooper Union before, in 1919, leaving his home of New York City to live as a vagrant for two years. He rode the rails, shoveled coal, threshed wheat fields in the great plains, and even joined the Barnum and Bailey circus. Eventually he returned to New York and began to study art in earnest. In 1931 he traveled to Europe and studied at the Académie de la Grande Chaumière in Paris. Back in the United States, Schanker was ready to make his impact on the art world. He had his first solo exhibition in 1933 at the Contemporary Arts Gallery, and it was explosively successful. Schanker spent the next two decades working and creating in New York City. His prints were so successful that he was made the graphic arts supervisor for the WPA. Eventually, he was hired as an assistant professor at Bard College, where he taught for thirty years before retiring. Schanker’s most notable mediums were oil painting and colored woodcut prints. Inspired by cubism and the abstract movement, he strove to use abstract art to depict the patterns and rhythms of the natural world. One of the cornerstones of Schanker’s legacy is furthering the acceptance of abstract and impressionist movements in American modern art. In the 1930’s, America was resistant to abstract ideas. Even where the art was accepted, there was often the expectation that it would be geometric and aesthetically pleasing. Schanker
“Though much of my work is generally classified as abstract, all of my work develops from natural forms. I have great respect for the forms of nature and an inherent need to express myself in relation to those forms.” banded together with likeminded artists to challenge these preconceptions, and they began hosting several exhibitions under the name “The Ten Whitney Dissenters.” Schanker was also a founding member of the American Abstract Artists, an artist’s group with similar philosophies to The Ten that was also one of the few artist organizations to survive the great depression. These groups were installments in a long line of artists banding together to push the boundaries of their culture. Schanker’s works can be found in notable institutions all around the country: the AlbrightKnox Art Gallery, the Addison Gallery of American Art, the Amon Carter Museum of American Art, the Asheville Art Museum, the Museum of Fine Art Boston, the Brooklyn Museum, the Smithsonian American Art Museum, the Metropolitan Museum, the National Gallery of Art, the Fogg Art Museum at Harvard, the Whitney Museum of American Art and the Worcester Art Museum.

Dean kept a daily journal and sent correspondence to his wife in which he wrote, “The tragic note, is Alan said - that my image of him may be the last - He's not been pictured for several years nor is there likelihood of future ones - But although they do not show him as I would like to have known him, they show him as I did know him and in one the eyes have a sparkle that makes ___ of the rest. The phrase would be, I think - that he is a beautiful man." He continues, “This has been a mystical experience for me – I am shaken still. But I have seen genius.” January 1, 1958 - Edward Weston dies at the age of 71 January 28, 2005 - Nicholas Dean dies at the age of 71 37

ELWYN GEORGE GOWEN
E
lwyn George Gowen (1895- 1954) was born in Sanford, Maine. For nearly two decades, he was affiliated with the School of the Museum of Fine Arts (SFMA), Boston. Beginning with his studies in 1914, he immersed himself in the school’s Design Department, working with noted artist Henry Hunt Clark. Impressed by his work, Clark hired Gowen to be in charge of the design and decoration of the SMFA’s building, which opened in 1927. Gowen spent the early part of his career in the fields of design and arts and crafts. Graduating from the SMFA during the height of the Arts and Crafts Movement, Gowen’s career lead him to work as a teacher, master craftsman, designer, and the owner of an interiordecorating firm. By 1922, Gowen was named a master craftsman by the Society of Arts and Crafts Boston, highlighting his excellence in the field of design. His design work appeared in the Society’s showrooms in Boston and New York throughout the decade. Gowen’s move from Boston to Maine in 1932 signaled a shift in both scenery and style. Under the guidance of Charles Woodbury, Gowen changed his focus from design to painting.x Gowen immersed himself in Woodbury’s methods-- observation of light, motion, and time. Gowen focused his attention to capturing Ogunquit on canvas. Having impressed Woodbury with his talent,

Gowen quickly transitioned from student to colleague and for several years taught in Woodbury’s school. A prolific painter his seascapes and landscape painting reflect the elements he learned of both color and design theory and are present within the compositional layout and color palette of the paintings exemplified here. Charles Woodbury’s influence is clearly seen in these works, both in their subject matter (Perkins Cove) and their technical execution (Esso Station and Cambridge-Brick Works). In these works and the others in the auction, Gowen interprets his vision of the landscape through a loose but purposeful brush stroke, evocative color palettes, and an inspired use of light, rhythm and composition. A member of the Ogunquit Art Association, Elwyn George Gowen regularly exhibited at its Barn Gallery in the 1930’s and 1940’s. During this period he also exhibited at many other galleries including the Jordan Marsh Art Gallery, Boston. Solo exhibitions of his work were held at the Collins Gallery, Kennebunk, Maine in 2000 and the Tufts University Art Gallery, Medford, Massachusetts in 2012. The latter show subsequently traveled to the artist’s home town and was exhibited at the Sanford-Springvale Historical Museum in Maine in 2012.

The artist was an architect from M.I.T and two-time socialist candidate for governor for the State of Maine and studied art under Leon Bonnat at École de Beaux Arts, Paris. Fox was a well-regarded artist at the time and taught many Maine artist at his summer art commune in North Bridgton, Maine and the utopian Fox Art School in Portland that the artist cooperatively ran with Curtis Perry, his partner in life, with the motto “to work and paint for the brotherhood of mankind.” Marsden Hartley attended the summer commune in July 1901, writing approvingly that Fox’s and Perry’s aim was “to live the higher life and to apply it to their art.” Much of Fox’s art focused on Native American lore and legend and the artist lived with Native Americans for several years out West and with the Penobscots in Old Town, Maine. His alternate name, Gwerksus, meaning “Little Fox” in Wabnaki, was given affectionately to him by the Penobscots, a rare honor afforded few white people. While much of Fox’s art was created among the Native Americans, this painting is reported to have been painted in Portland, Maine. The bulk of the artist’s estate was donated to the Farnsworth Museum in Rockland, Maine.
