Newman, and Mark Rothko at thelegendary Betty Parsons Gallery.Influenced by the writings of Jung,Freud, the Transcendentalists andEastern religious texts, his earlycompositions include the totemicreferences seen in Pollock’s workbut also evolved toward geometricforms and abstraction, referencingthese powerful concepts.

While iconography and contentevolved, the heavily-texturedsurface of Pousette-Dart’s paintingsis consistent from the 1960’sonward. As with the grand-scalepresent work from the Strata series,large fields of thickly-impastoed,scintillating points of color fill everyinch of canvas so that theyshimmer and oscillate with color.The contrasts of line versusrounded form; symmetry versusrandom gesture and contrastingcolors all underline the artist’sinterest in the tensions betweenstability versus motion, naturalversus formality, and order versuschaos.

During the decade in which thiswork was executed, Pousette-Dartdelivered many influential talks on

the nature of painting, and wasrecognized with both a prestigiousGuggenheim Foundation Fellowshipand Ford Foundation grant. In 1951,Pousette-Dart left New York Citypermanently, spending the rest ofhis life in Rockland County, NewYork, where he could be certain thathis work was fresh, and free fromthe influence of Manhattan’s busyart scene.

His place in the story of twentieth-century abstraction is well-secured—major retrospectives ofhis art were held in New York at theWhitney Museum of American Art,the Solomon R. GuggenheimMuseum, the Peggy GuggenheimCollection in Venice, Italy, and in1997-98 at Metropolitan Museumof Art. As recently as 2010, severalof Pousette-Dart’s paintings wereincluded in the exhibition, “AbstractExpressionist New York” at theMuseum of Modern Art.$200,000-300,000

The following four lots by Philip Guston belonged to H.W. Janson, the respectedart historian and author of the hugely successful and widely distributed book“The History of Art,” first published in 1962. Janson taught at several institutionsduring his long career, including New York University, The University of Iowa andWashington University in St. Louis. Through these teaching opportunities,Janson had the opportunity to meet and befriend several artists such as FletcherMartin, Julio de Diego, Edward Milman, Werner Drewes and Philip Guston.

This ink and wash drawing depicting fighting children wearing newspaper hats andbearing wooden swords has strong compositional and thematic similarities to“Gladiators,” an oil on canvas from 1940 from the Edward R. Broida Collection inthe Museum of Modern Art, New York. The same themes appear in a WPA muralhe painted in Long Island City, Queens called “Work and Play.” The ink drawing ofForio, Italy (lot 102) was also a planning sketch for a mural by the artist.

note:In 1977, Alex Katz was asked to create a triple-tiered, 247-foot work inbillboard format above Times Square, New York. The piece, to be located ona rooftop at 42nd Street and 7th Avenue, consisted of twenty-three portraitsof women each measuring twenty-feet high, and the entire billboardextended along two sides of the RKO General building on a sixty-foot tower.

An independent spirit in the midst of the Abstract Expressionist era, Katzwas already focused on representational art. As critic Carter Ratcliff wrote ina 2005 monograph, "Appropriating the monumental scale, starkcomposition and dramatic light of the Abstract Expressionists, he would beatthe heroic generation at their own game.” "It was an open door," Katz statedin 2009 for Smithsonian magazine, "No one was doing representationalpainting on a large scale."

Taking his inspiration from film and commercial billboards, Katz’s highlystylized pictures anticipated Pop Art. His flat, bright figures had an “everydayquality” that linked them to commercial art and popular culture, but wereexecuted with wet-into-wet brushwork which clearly showed the artist’shand, and was a nod to Expressionist influence. Interested in the element ofsurprise and discovery, Katz has painted the reverse in grays to illustrate thebacks of the figures’ heads. In this sense, the work is unlike a billboard andinvites more of an active, moving interaction with the viewer.

Very few original aluminum cutouts have been offered for sale at auction inrecent years, and it is unusual to see one depicting so many figures in onepiece. This work is special in its direct connection to one of the largest-scalecommissions ever undertaken by the artist, and for its complex composition.
