| Wayne Thiebaud (1920-2021)

Not yet mainstream, American painter Wayne Thiebaud experimented with Pop Art characteristics several years before the likes of Warhol and Lichtenstein. As a cartoonist and designer who apprenticed at Walt Disney Studios, he had found inspiration in materialistic subject matter since high school.

Thiebaud became well-known for his depiction of ‘production line objects’ and commonplace items. While his fascination with diners, in particular, drew comparisons to Edward Hopper, his preference for heavy pigments, exaggerated color palettes and dynamic brushstrokes distinguished his innate originality.

These gorgeously designed glass beaded table lamps are exemplary of Emile-Jacques Ruhlmann's exquisite craftsmanship. Ruhlmann, a defining designer of the Art Deco movement, was known for his sleek furniture and masterful synthesis of contrasting materials. This form is rare—there are few known authentic examples of beaded table lamps by Ruhlmann.

“The idea is to have no idea,” the artist has said of his practice. “Get lost. Get lost in the landscape.”

Malcolm Morley
British-American, 1931–2018 Underneath the Lemon Tree, 1981 (57 x 75 in), Stand 203

Malcolm Morley was born in London but lived and worked in New York City for much of his life. The scope of Morley's work ranges from photorealism to scenes of complex mythologies, where he calls on personal motifs and imagery to populate his paintings.
"...'Underneath the Lemon Tree' of 1981 is a mixture of autobiography, exotic reference and sheer delight in the act of painting. We may remember that when David Hockney was very young, he, too, used to paint pictures that were an amalgam of historical styles, and that the Douanier Rousseau was never more compelling than when he worked with the image of a tropical jungle that he had never actually visited. Morley found his archetypal jungle in Florida - and very convincing it is, too, just as he remembered the soldier in 'Underneath the Lemon Tree' from childhood memories of the sentries in their boxes outside Buckingham Palace."

- John Russell, New York Times, 1984

We are honored to receive the Outstanding Display Award London 2022
