    ABSTRACT MIXED MEDIA PAINTING SIGNED SOO PIENG

    Est: $100 - $150

    A mixed media painting on board depicting an abstract composition in an impressive impasto technique. Signed, Soo Pieng, lower left. Framed. Additionally inscribed on the backside. Soo Pieng Cheong, Singaporean, 1917 to 1983, is known for Abstract marine, landscape and figure painting and ink drawing. Iconic and innovative Singaporean artist Soo Pieng Cheong is famous for his Nanyang paintings and pioneering efforts in that style, however, his subjects and styles actually spanned the artistic spectrum from realist to abstract. Furthermore, other styles he practiced were difficult to place on the spectrum because they were the result of his constant experimentation and use of new media, such as metal installations, wood, and cloth, to create his own unique styles. His methods mirrored his dual Western and Eastern educations and the melting pot of cultures and influences he witnessed while living in China and Southeast Asia. He made a profound impact on Singaporean modern art in a short time period due to his ability to learn many different styles throughout his career. One of a kind artwork.

    Jose Maria De Servin (1912-1983) Mexican, Oil Painting on Burlap. Depicts a stylized wide-eyed Mexican girl dancing. Signed upper right.  Condition: Commensurate with age.  Overall Size: 34 1/4 x 26 1/4 in.  Sight Size: 26 x 17 3/4 in.  #6 #4056 .  Jose Maria de Servin was born in Michigan in 1912, but his family moved to Guadalajara, Mexico when he was only two months old. The family followed work, but a particularly rough period of weather and health issues led them to stay in Mexico for much of de Servin’s childhood. He grew up to become a prominent member of the “Young Painters of Jalisco” group, first studying at the Mexico School of Open-Air Painting, a free art institution sponsored by the government. Although he first studied with Jose Vizcarra, he mainly worked under Chucho Reyes, whose improvisational watercolors incorporating traditional Mexican themes had a profound influence on de Servin’s art. By the early 1930s he was recognized for his work on unconventional materials, such as painting on burlap or corn husk, and for his modernist reimaginings of classic Mexican folk art, incorporating styles from artists like Picasso and other cubists. In 1934 de Servin collaborated with Jose Clemente Orozco on murals and other works that were shown in the Legislative Palace of Guadalajara, which led him to a lifelong fascination with large scale art and many murals painted jointly with his brothers, Antonio and Miguel. He taught summer art courses for 15 years at the University of Arizona, and had many solo shows in North America as well as Europe. He died in 1983, and his work continues to fascinate collectors and artists who have begun to explore the folk art and the influence his unique style had on the Jalisco scene, as well as the rest of Central America.

    ATTR TO SOO PIENG CHEONG CHINESE NUDE OIL PAINTING

    Est: $100 - $150

    Attributed to Soo Pieng Cheong, Chinese, 1917 to 1983, an oil painting on canvas depicting a portrait of a seated semi nude woman in a bird in a landscape, 1978. Signed with Calligraphy, lower left. Framed. Additionally signed in Latin, and dated, on the backside. Soo Cheong is known for Abstract marine, landscape and figure painting and ink drawing. Iconic and innovative Singaporean artist Cheong Soo Pieng is famous for his Nanyang paintings and pioneering efforts in that style, however his subjects and styles actually spanned the artistic spectrum from realist to abstract. Furthermore, other styles he practiced were difficult to place on the spectrum because they were the result of his constant experimentation and use of new media, such as metal installations, wood, and cloth, to create his own unique styles. His methods mirrored his dual Western and Eastern educations and the melting pot of cultures and influences he witnessed while living in China and Southeast Asia. He made a profound impact on Singaporean modern art in a short time period due to his ability to learn many different styles throughout his career. One of a kind artwork.
