N.B. Considered one of America’s strongest printmakers, Howard Cook was also a painter, muralist, illustrator, and teacher. He was born and raised in Springfield, Massachusetts, and trained at the Art Students League in New York beginning in 1919. It was during this time that he became interested in printmaking and worked with Joseph Pennell, among others, to explore etching and wood-cutting techniques. Cook and his wife, artist Barbara Latham, travelled to Paris in 1929 in part so Cook could learn lithography. When they returned to New York, Cook turned to the many construction projects in the city as subjects for his work. The subject of this work is the Chrysler Building. This iconic Art Deco structure opened in May of 1930, was the world’s tallest building for 11 months before it was surpassed by the Empire State Building in 1931. The edition was intended to be 75, but only 50 were printed. $2,000-2,500

83 Robert Rauschenberg (American, 19252008) Trunk, from the series Seven Characters, 1982, an edition of 70 unique collage pieces (Gemini, 41.144). Signed and dated “RAUSCHENBERG 82” in pencil l.r., stamped with Chinese character and “TRUNK” on the reverse, stamped “© Gemini G.E.L.” and inscribed “#56” and “RR82-12” in pencil on the reverse. Mixed media with cast paper, fabric collage, mirror, and embroidered hanging medallion, 42 1/2 x 30 1/2 in. (107.8 x 77.4 cm), presented in a Plexiglas box. Condition: Not examined out of frame. N.B. Rauschenberg conceived of this series as a collaborative project with China and its artists, using the working title of “China Collage” series, at a time when China was far from open to Westerners. Rauschenberg’s work is highly self-contextualized. While he came to China with a plethora of materials to employ in the project, he found inspiration in the elements he discovered around him. Rauschenberg chose to visit the Anhui province where the famous “1,000 year paper” or Xuan paper is produced. Here he also found the calligraphic symbols—chosen for both their forms and meanings—that would be the basis for the series. He was drawn to the silk wedding bedclothes that would evolve into the hanging medallions, and the Chinese propaganda posters that contained the paper collage elements he would ultimately employ. Even the seals he applied upon completion of the collages—those of the paper mill, the artist, and the publisher—came from Chinese antecedents.

83

The result was a group of seventy unique compositions, each with variations in the poster elements, the silk medallions, and the ribbons. By removing these elements from their original contexts through cutting and reassembly, Rauschenberg created new relationships and contexts. $5,000-7,000

91 Alfred Stieglitz (American, 1864-1946) The “Flat-iron,” from Camera Work, no. 4, 1903. Photogravure on paper, 6 3/8 x 3 1/4 in. (17.0 x 8.3 cm), matted, framed. Condition: Affixed to brown paper support at bottom corners (top hinges broken), minor fox mark or similar in u.r. quadrant. N.B. As a founding member of the PhotoSecession and publisher of Camera Work, Alfred Stieglitz was a major force in the promotion and elevation of photography as a fine art in America at the turn of the 20th century. This view of the Fuller Building, better known as the Flat-iron because of its shape, demonstrates the Pictorialist aesthetic— painterly, soft focus images with subtle tonal variation and unusual compositions— Stieglitz first championed. The composition of overlapping forms and flattened space also shows the influence of 19th century Japanese woodblock prints. At the same time, Stieglitz’s embrace of a more modernist depiction of contemporary life is reflected by the architectural form of the building, which he described as appearing to move toward him “like the bow of a monster ocean steamer—a picture of a new America that was still in the making.”1 1.

99 Wright Morris (American, 1910-1998) Farmhouse in Winter, near Lincoln, Nebraska, 1940, printed later. Signed “Wright Morris” in pencil on the verso l.r. Gelatin silver print, 10 1/2 x 13 1/2 in. (26.7 x 34.3 cm), framed. Condition: Scattered spot toning.

N.B. In the late 1930s and 1940s the novelist Wright Morris made beautiful and poignant photographs exploring the rural culture of the American countryside. Morris’s emphasis was on architecture and still life, but unlike the work of Walker Evans, which provides a formal description of American vernacular structures, Morris photographed farms and homesteads that were fading into the past. Although they are mostly without human subjects, his images offer evidence of bad luck, failure, misplaced faith, tenacity, and human fallibility. As he wrote after a cross-country journey in 1938, “I saw the American landscape crowded with ruins I wanted to salvage.”1 1. Quoted in Sandra S. Phillips and John Szarkowski, Wright Morris: Origin of a Species (San Francisco: San Francisco Museum of Art, 1992), p. 27.

Signed and numbered “© Arnold Newman 4/99” in black ink in the image l.r. Gelatin silver print mounted to board, image/sheet size 19 7/8 x 15 7/8 in. (50.5 x 40.3 cm), unmatted, framed. Condition: Not examined out of frame. N.B. In 1972 the publisher Harry N. Abrams announced a program offering limited edition black-and-white prints by ten eminent photographers. Each photograph (in editions of 99) was made from the original negative by the artist, assisted by a master printer from a custom lab. The photographers, representing a range of practices from photojournalism to creative photography, included Arnold Newman and Gordon Parks (see Lot 102), as well as Wynn Bullock, Eliot Elisofon, Ernst Haas, Philippe Halsman, Ken Heyman, Marc Riboud, Aaron Siskind, and Howard Sochurek. With Abrams Original Editions, noted the project’s founder and director Peter Pollack, “limited signed editions of the best work by these photo craftsmen can be as successful as limited signed editions of fine etchings and lithographs have been in the art world.” Pollack added, “It is another source of income for photographers and it puts a good value on photographic prints which have been made with painstaking care. It may also prove to be an investment for knowledgeable collectors.”1 1. Quoted in a feature by Irving Desfor, The Kokomo Tribune, Kokomo, Indiana, September 27, 1972, p. 35.

105 Eliot Porter (American, 1901-1990) Dungeon Canyon, Glen Canyon, August 29, 1961, printed in 1980 in an edition of 250 for the portfolio Eliot Porter: Glen Canyon. Signed “Eliot Porter” in pencil on the mount l.r., stamped on the reverse of the mount l.l. Dye-transfer print mounted to board, image/ sheet size 16 x 12 3/8 in. (40.6 x 31.0 cm), unmatted, unframed. Condition: Scattered subtle fox marks on the mount recto, fox marks on the mount verso. N.B. At twelve years old, Eliot Porter’s father gave him his first camera, a Kodak Brownie. As a young man, he studied medicine and eventually became a research biologist and professor, but photography and nature remained a constant in his life. Ansel Adams encouraged Porter to work with a large-format camera, and when his brother, painter Fairfield Porter, introduced him to Alfred Stieglitz, he shifted careers. While he was successful with his black-and-white work in the 1930s, it was the dye transfer work he began in the 1940s that was pioneering. In 1979, Intimate Landscapes, an exhibition of fifty-five works by Porter, was the first one-man showing of color photographs ever presented at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. $700-900 105

N.B. Ansel Adams was an American photographer best known for his iconic images of the American West. Built in 1864, the purpose of the Pioneer Mill, also known as the Aztec Mill, was to provide wheat and corn flour for local residents, soldiers at Fort Union, and to the Indian Agency in Cimarron, New Mexico. By depicting the building from the side, Adams incorporates the wooden archway as a framing device that echoes the edges of the photographic sheet. $2,000-3,000 108 Ansel Adams (American, 1902-1984) Seaweed and Pebbles, 1960s.

A representative of Skinner, Inc. will execute such reserves by bidding for the consignor. In any event and whether or not a lot is subject to a reserve, the auctioneer may reject any bid or raise not commensurate with the value of such lot. 2. All property is sold “as is,� and neither the auctioneer nor any consignor makes any warranties or representation of any kind or nature with respect to the property, and in no event shall they be responsible for the correctness, nor deemed to have made any representation or warranty, of description, genuineness, authorship, attribution, provenance, period, culture, source, origin, or condition of the property and no statement made at the sale, or in the bill of sale, or invoice or elsewhere shall be deemed such a warranty of representation or an assumption of liability. 3. Except as provided in paragraph 1 above, the highest bidder as determined by the auctioneer shall be the purchaser. In the case of a disputed bid, the auctioneer shall have sole discretion in determining the purchaser and may also, at his or her election, withdraw the lot or reoffer the lot for sale.

Import restrictions from foreign countries are subject to these same governing laws. Granting of licensing for import or export of goods from local authorities is the sole responsibility of the buyer.
