There he studied with John Audubon Tyler and Lorser Feidelsson. Besser's approach to Photo-Realism is to draw from the urban landscape and nature a suscint "set like" image of reality. His city scenes depict New York street life alive with trading and traders, prostitutes and junkies looking for a fix. These visual images iconify the underside of urban life in a way that elevates this point of view to an almost mythic level. Born on May 11, 1935, in Hinsdale, Ill., to Henry Besser, a bank owner, and the former Irene Jackson, he graduated from high school in nearby Downers Grove and then went west to attend art school in New Mexico. He also trained at the Art Center School in Los Angeles, under the tutelage of Lorser Feitelson, an artist who, said Mr. Morell, is credited with inventing the "hard-edge" style of painting. Mr. Besser was stationed in Alaska while serving in the Army, and liked to regale his companion with tales of long nights in a sleeping bag in below-freezing weather.

        Arne Besser (American, born 1935) large framed original oil on canvas. Measures 30 x 36 inches image size and 35.5 x 42 inches framed. Excellent condition. Weighs 15 pounds. Provenance: Estate of David Milot. David was a Real Estate Broker by trade and a passionate, lifelong collector of anything of quality that caught his eye. His collection of fine art, bronzes, designer decor, period furniture, mid-century furniture, designer furniture, Chinese antiques and more are among some of the finest examples available. David's knowledge, or perhaps more accurately, "his eye" for quality, was usually the most refined of anyone in the room. David purchased thousands of items over the years at auctions, estate sales, and antique stores so any additional provenance is not readily available. These treasures were truly found "in the wild," and that's how David liked it. This item must be picked up by buyer or requires the use of an outside shipper.

(76.2 cm x 55.88 cm) Arne Besser's high-contrast depiction of urban life outside of a typical ice cream parlor embodies the reality of city living. Visually and thematically, the artist's representation of a classic American eatery with a prostitute leaning against the exterior while a workaday woman exits the parlor creates a somewhat mythic scene ultimately rooted in reality.
