Estimate $60,000-80,000 Provenance Blum & Poe, Los Angeles
“…Grotjahn’s works assault you with heavily abstracted and sometimes multiplying eyes that combine with line work to overtly borrow from and reminisce about Picasso’s own lifting of styles and moves from “primitive” art. But as Picassoid as they are, Grotjahn’s paintings also are reminiscent of work by a number of proto- and early modernists, as well as a host of primitive-by-way-of-Picasso–inspired artists from Klee to Pollock to Basquiat. And as much as Grotjahn’s paintings might be considered sums of parts that descend and derive from precedents, they might also be considered as homeradicalized fusions of Grotjahn’s own tendencies previously evinced in more disparate bodies of work ranging from his cartoon-inspired works, to his mask drawings, to his “butterfly” paintings and drawings in which combinations of line and color deliver abstract compositions that register as nonobjective, but which also trigger that part of your brain that begins to recognize depth in a space that seems almost like it’s unfolding between a butterfly’s opening wings. Add to this dashes of both expressionist heat and some Warholian cool, and you begin to get a sense of Grotjahn’s personal code.” C. Miles, “Mark Grotjahn and J.B.

The photography of German artist Florian Maier-Aichen allows for the subject matter of landscape photography to be re-discovered. Taken from a unique vantage point, the artist enhances the viewer’s scale of the mountain shot in The Best General View. This image demonstrates a tribute to his fellow German artist David Caspar Friedrich by incorporating hues of blues, grays and reds. This unique manipulation of color and scale of the original view leaves the viewer thinking directly of the romantic and gothic elements Caspar Friedrich displayed in his own landscape paintings. In The Best General View one contemplates the origins of nature and is transformed into another world where green trees are turned to red.

“Unlike the lush handling of paint and spontaneous assembly of materials by New York artists Jasper Johns and Robert Rauschenberg, West Coast artists made paintings, photographs, and objects in a broad range of styles that asserted their autonomy as individuals forging a new frontier. […] California was an oasis at the edge of the continent. It was a land of dreams where swimming pools, billboards, urban sprawl, and automobiles were the markers of postwar prosperity.” In Ruscha’s bucolic 1968 photographs of swimming pools, “the only hint of human activity in these pictures—in the form of wet footsteps on a diving board—feels at once playful and ominous.” With works such as the present lot, Ruscha proves himself as a monumental influence on the emergence of what the art critic William Jenkins called “a new topographic style, which was anthropological rather than critical, scientific rather than artistic. A topographic map renders a threedimensional landscape in two dimensions. It lists elevations and indicates their relief with flat contour lines. It also notes the position of natural and man-made features. Ruscha’s books of California subjects can be seen as a topographic map with many features, each one describing a different experience of the place. Together, they chart a distinctly American landscape, one that casts a dry, analytical eye on the nation in the post war years.” (S. Wolf, “California Topographic”, Ed Ruscha and Photography, 2004, New York, pp. 128, 154 and 169)

“If there is one image that more than any other is conventionally associated with David Hockney’s art, it is the image of the swimming pool. There are many reasons for this. He has painted, drawn, photographed or made prints containing images of swimming pools from the mid 1960s to the present day. His rise to public prominence more than twenty years ago was coincident with the first appearance of this image in his work. As an expatriate living principally in Los Angeles, he is easily associated with the commonplace clichés of that sunny clime, the swimming pool among them” (C.

“Well, I was trained and sort of programmed to think like an Abstract Expressionist, and I was part of that for a while…and, looking back, I can see that Abstract Expressionism is vital painting…it’s realy…and I still love it. So I don’t find it foreign to me. But it’s only a step towards my direction. I think an artist has to negate one thing in order to move on to something else. So, it became a question of either loading the brush with color and attacking a canvas that was pure white, or something else…almost preconceived. I took the second way. My paintings were almost dreamed about in advance, rather than painted on the spot. I began to plan my work…funnily enough it all seems to come from a source…even abstract painting, in a way, has an approach and some connection to reality.” Ed Ruscha taken from an interview with Bernard Blistène in E.

Nara’s reductive and straight-forward drawings delve deep beyond the surface to consider emotions that as humans we must face on a day-today basis. He touches on one of the primary philosophical, and arguably most difficult, concerns of the human condition—growing old and leaving childhood and adolescence behind. “On the surface, Nara’s kids appear uncomplicated, even bored at times, yet one doesn’t have to look far to uncover the layers of mischief and emotion bubbling beneath—it’s as if the harder you look, the more these children seem to know and the more you have to learn. Through the faces of his subjects, Nara invites us to linger, to leave the rules at the door and enter the more fluid and uninhibited world of children. While many of his contemporaries embrace the escapism afforded by the futuristic fantasy and play of anime, Nara does not retreat entirely into the make-believe. Rather, he provides a conduit to another world—a world hopefully still within reach— through the immediacy and directness of children. He invites us to reconnect with the imaginative and imaginary possibilities in their distant but once familiar land” (K. Chambers, “A Visit to Naraland,” Nothing Ever Happens, Cleveland, 2003, p. 28).

“We want to see the newest things. That is because we want to see the future, even if only momentarily. It is the moment in which, even if we don’t completely understand what we have glimpsed, we are nonetheless touched by it. This is what we have come to call art.” (T. Murakami, Superflat, Tokyo, 2000) Breaking the barriers of Japanese contemporary art, Takashi Murakami is best known to represent his culture by applying Japanese animation onto canvas. In a Warhol fashion, Murakami takes the everyday mundane and turns it into fine art. Similar to the “Pop” pioneer, Murakami displays his oeuvre of work through painting, sculpture, and printmaking as well. In Jellyfish eyes—Max & Shimon in the Strange Forest, Murakami demonstrates a Zen-like composition of evenly dispersed graphics surrounding the comiclike subject matter of the animated characters Max & Shimon. The colorful graphics based on a galaxy black background not only enhances the fantasyworld of Japanese animation but the viewer is embraced with the emotions of the subject matter. In its “Superflat” style, the artist becomes the creator of his fantasy work and at the same time, directly represents Japanese contemporary culture in an art form which can be comprehended by a mass audience around the globe.

Dirk Skreber’s Untitled belongs to a series of large scale disaster paintings, or rather in this case impending disaster paintings that the artist has been involved with for much of his career. Like many others from the series, Skreber portrays a seemingly ordinary image, one which might be seen in magazines or postcards, on an enormous scale. Here though the images of mundane subject matter are re-contextualized. As the artist once said in an interview, he is able to develop an enthusiasm for everything in which the masses take part without giving much thought to it. In a painting like Untitled, the original material is clearly recognizable as something familiar and most probably taken directly from the world of the media, but at the same time— the meaning or importance is relatively unclear.

Ford’s combination of historical fact, natural history and surreal compositions inhabited by the birds, primates, reptiles and big cats among countless others come together to create a new kind of painting. It’s not historical or even nature painting per se, but rather an examination of the exploitation of the environment and a satire on political oppression. From a very early age, Ford was extremely fascinated with the wildlife and nature exhibits at New York’s Museum of Natural History. So much so that early on he began a study of John James Audubon’s works. Building upon that body of work, Ford has, since the 1990s, been searching for a way to utilize his love of nature and this type of classical illustration to comment on current societal views and critiques on nature and the environment.

“Skreber works with this manipulative potential of paintings. Their stories give him an occasion to trigger an interest in the picture per se: ‘the idea is to find a point from which the story can take off from’ … Skreber is ultimately only interested in reasserting the status of painting. It is amazing to see what stages the artist has passed through in his painting until now. At the very moment one believes to have found the final point of his painting Skreber once again takes off … Skreber derives his motifs from his (and our) everyday life, processing these ‘views’ that have become ingrained in collective memory through the pervasive influence of the mass media but at the same time are pale and without a fixed location. These images have lost some of their impact somewhere along the way through the various information channels of our visual culture. In the process of painting, the artist reinvests them with their incredible fascinating quality and dramatic thrust.” (M. Lübbke-Tidow on Dirk Skreber, reproduced at http://www.engholmengelhorn.com)

“My primary interest comes from investigations into how the eye functions and how one can use color to explore the difference is what wee see. Our experience of color, light and darkness is of course not a purely biological matter – it also depends on how our vision has been cultivated… That discrepancy is interesting because it contests the idea of rationalized vision that’s sill predominant today; a way of seeing that has ruled out the notion of difference.” (Olafur Eliasson taken from an interview with Philip Ursprung in O. Eliasson, ed., Studio Olafur Eliasson: An Encyclopedia, Cologne, 2008, p. 93) In the present lot, Holo Lamp, a circular mirror reflects light from a bulb onto a vertically mounted holographic glass disc.

Paying homage to artists such as Joseph Albers and Marc Rothko, Eric Freeman’s Red Inside Green re-devises the metaphysical qualities of abstract painting for a contemporary age. Using contrasting hues, Red Inside Green offers subtle deception through colour perspective, its geometric forms continuously bulging and receding in illusionary space. Seamlessly painted in oil, Freeman’s canvas possesses an artificial vivacity; its ethereal glow reminiscent of plasma screen technology, creating an electrifying aura that is both spiritual and synthetic.

“In the beginning I didn’t want it to be. It was this rebellious gesture to do the Pollocks, to destabalize the idolatry. And now it’s all been consumed, which is good because I always thought you couldn’t cause change from without, you had to be in the system to cause change. So maybe it’s all working in a way— for this minute—(laughs) Tomorrow is gonna be another story.

The present lot exists in direct correlation to the controversy surrounding the artist’s sculpture Tilted Arc. As with many of the artist’s drawings the line between drawing and sculpture is blurred—Richard Serra utilizes the power of pure form to define space and the relationship of the work, its viewer, and their shared environment. Commissioned by the U.S. General Services Administration’s “Artsin-Architectures” program for the Federal Plaza in New York City and constructed in 1981, Tilted Arc was dismantled against the will of Richard Serra in 1989. The sculpture, measuring one hundred and twenty feet long by twelve feet high, was protested - hailed a nuisance and aid to potential terrorists. As stressed by Serra, the sculpture was only relevant in its intended setting, it could not be moved. The viewer should interact with the sculpture in terms of its environment, the piece constantly changing as one moved around it. A March 1985 public hearing settled the conflict in that Tilted Arc would be taken down. The sculpture would, however, continue to elicit dialogue long after its removal. Ishmael holds a relationship to the viewer and environment similar to that of Tilted Arc. The visual weight of the drawing anchors the space in which it is displayed. Although realized in oil stick on paper as a two-dimensional drawing, the lot at hand confronts the viewer in the same manner as a three-dimensional sculpture. The slightly angled, geometric composition of Ishmael also references Serra’s gravity-dependent work of the 1970’s.

The present lot, by American artist Alice Neel, is a stunning example of the enigmatic force and haunting quality that so define the artist’s mature realist style. Neel, a powerful figure in 20th century post-modern art not just as a successful female artist but as a dedicated figurative painter in an age where the avant-garde dominated critical theory and popular opinion, helped to redefine the notion of representing the “real” in painting. This work of a child aged six captures the quiet intelligence and curiousness of the child while projecting a strong psychological tension of sexual ambiguity. At first glance, the child appears to be a young boy but after further contemplation of the compositional elements, as well as reflecting upon the title, proves Sabrina to be a thoughtful and defiant child. Here, Sabrina is painted in Neel’s famous sitting chair where the likes of the artist’s modern day contemporaries such as Andy Warhol sat for portraits. As was practice throughout her career, the artist strove for dynamism through imperfect pairing; nowhere is her use of unequal doubles more apparent than in her treatment of eyes, such as Sabrina’s, which never exactly mirror each other. For Neel, the gender ambiguity and unique maturity her sitter offered her was a vehicle through which she could record the manners and mannerisms of a particular moment in time, a form of “writing history.” Her portraits, such as Sabrina, not only capture the body, posture, and physiognomy of individuals; they “embodied” the character of an era.

Estimate $20,000-30,000 Provenance Zach Feuer Gallery (LFL), New York
Friendly Fire is a response to the death of Pat Tillman, the former professional American football player killed in April 2005 while fighting in Afghanistan. Tillman was shot by a member of his own unit, returning fire following an ambush. His death, recognized with the posthumous award of a Silver Star for gallantry, provoked a media outcry and forced millions of Americans to face up to the terrible realities of war. In his fluid, quasi-holographic depiction of the event, Meyerson portrays the speed, danger and confusion of warfare, severed by a deadly rain of fire unable to distinguish between friend and foe. Tillman himself is presented as some kind of contemporary Frankenstein, created from the red and white of the Arizona Cardinals and the green of the U.S. Army. (Courtesy of Patricia Ellis)

Presented as both sculpture and theatrical maquette, Lothar Hempel’s Morning Rain offers a sentiment of naïve elegance. Constructed from simple craft media such as fabric and newspaper, Hempel draws from the enchantment of imagination, converting everyday materials into a fanciful puppet theatre. Consciously exposing the process of his making, Hempel’s figure makes no pretence to illusion. It’s interpretation as fictional scene, fragile museum piece, exotic artefact, or simply formalist intrigue is openly offered for viewer’s participation in Hempel’s suggested fantasy.

providing or participating in a guarantee on the lot, Phillips de Pury & Company will make an announcement in the saleroom that interested parties may bid on the lot. Consecutive and Responsive Bidding The auctioneer may open the bidding on any lot by placing a bid on behalf of the seller. The auctioneer may further bid on behalf of the seller up to the amount of the reserve by placing consecutive bids or bids in response to other bidders. 4 AFTER THE AUCTION Payment Buyers are required to pay for purchases immediately following the auction unless other arrangements are agreed with Phillips de Pury & Company in writing in advance of the sale. Payments must be made in US dollars either by cash, check drawn on a US bank or wire transfer, as noted in Paragraph 6 of the Conditions of Sale. It is our corporate policy not to make or accept single or multiple payments in cash or cash equivalents in excess of US$10,000. Credit Cards As a courtesy to clients, Phillips de Pury & Company will accept American Express, Visa and Mastercard to pay for invoices of $10,000 or less. Collection It is our policy to request proof of identity on collection of a lot. A lot will be released to the buyer or the buyer’s authorized representative when Phillips de Pury & Company has received full and cleared payment and we are not owed any other amount by the buyer. Promptly after the auction, we will transfer all lots to our warehouse located at 29-09 37th Avenue in Long Island City, Queens, New York. All purchased lots should be collected at this location during our regular weekday business hours. As a courtesy to clients, we will upon request transfer purchased lots suitable for hand carry back to our premises at 450 West 15th Street, New York, New York for collection within 30 days following the date of the auction. For each purchased lot not collected from us at either our warehouse or our auction galleries by such date, Phillips de Pury & Company will levy an administrative fee of $35, a storage fee of $5 per day and a pro rated Insurance charge of 0.1% of the purchase price per month. Loss or Damage Buyers are reminded that Phillips de Pury & Company accepts liability for loss or damage to lots for a maximum of five days following the auction. Transport and Shipping As a free service for buyers, Phillips de Pury & Company will wrap purchased lots for hand carry only. We will, at the buyer’s expense, either provide packing, handling and shipping services or coordinate with shipping agents instructed by the buyer in order to facilitate such services for property purchased at Phillips de Pury & Company. Please refer to Paragraph 7 of the Conditions of Sale for more information. Export and Import Licenses Before bidding for any property, prospective bidders are advised to make independent inquiries as to whether a license is required to export the property from the United States or to import it into another country. It is the buyer’s sole responsibility to comply with all import and export laws and to obtain any necessary licenses or permits. The denial of any required license or permit or any delay in obtaining such documentation will not justify the cancellation of the sale or any delay in making full payment for the lot. Endangered Species Items made of or incorporating plant or animal material, such as coral, crocodile, ivory, whalebone, rhinoceros horn or tortoiseshell, irrespective of age, percentage or value, may require a license or certificate prior to exportation and additional licenses or certificates upon importation to any foreign country. Please note that the ability to obtain an export license or certificate does not ensure the ability to obtain an import license or certificate in another country, and vice versa. We suggest that prospective bidders check with their own government regarding wildlife import requirements prior to placing a bid. It is the buyer’s sole responsibility to obtain any necessary export or import licenses or certificates as well as any other required documentation. The denial of any required license or certificate or any delay in obtaining such documentation will not justify the cancellation of the sale or any delay in making full payment for the lot.
