Lot description
Ronnie Landfield American/New York, b. 1947 "Kansas City Series 1" casein and gouache on paper 1963, signed, dated and localized lower right, "McClain Gallery, Houston, TX" and "Jacobson Howard Gallery, New York, NY" labels with title en verso, framed. Note: Ronnie Landfield's impressive body of work has been labeled Lyrical Abstraction, but he did not always paint with such vibrancy and freedom. In the 1960s, the artist first focused on minimalism, eventually finding the style too confining. As an artist in the energetic and creative hub of New York during the mid-20th century, he befriended many of his contemporaries including John Chamberlain, Donald Judd, Frank Stella, Robert Rauschenberg, Andy Warhol, and Marisol, all of whom he saw regularly at the famous nightclub and restaurant, Max's Kansas City. Landfield is now recognized as one of the first artists to transition from the strict, linear forms of minimalism into a style more sensuous and softer in its abstraction, as is evident in the lots offered here.
