Wayne Thiebaud (American, 1920‑2021)
Est: $5,500 - $8,500
Frame 36x29cm, Sight Size 22x15cm (Frame 14.17"x11.42", Sight Size 8.66"x5.91") Wayne Thiebaud (American, 1920‑2021) ranks among the most important American artists of the postwar era. Though linked to Pop Art, his practice draws equally from traditional painterly values. He rose to fame in the early 1960s with his signature dessert still‑lifes: slices of cake, pies and confections rendered in heavy impasto, creating frosting‑like texture, crisp outlines and stylized shadows inspired by commercial advertising. Beyond food motifs, he also created landscapes, cityscapes and figure works. His art is represented in leading international public collections, and his works achieve prominent results at global auctions.

Est: $8,000 - $9,000
Wayne Thiebaud American, (1920-2021) Suckers State I lithograph Pencil signed and numbered 111/150 lower right. Blind stamp lower right. Published by Gemini G.E.L., Los Angeles. Biography from the Archives of askART: A painter of pop-art realism combined with a great respect for traditional methods and subject matter, Wayne Thiebaud is one of the most prominent of the Bay Area painters in California in the latter part of the 20th century. His reputation spread far beyond his own state. In his painting, he focuses on the commonplace in a way that suggests irony and objective distance from his subjects. He also makes a point of keeping an independent distance from the New York art scene. He was born in Mesa, Arizona, in 1920, and for one summer during his high school years he apprenticed at the Walt Disney Studio and then studied at an Los Angeles trade school the next summer. He earned a degree from Sacramento State College in 1941. From 1938 to 1949, he worked as a cartoonist and designer in California and New York and served as an artist in the United States Army. In 1950, at the age of thirty, he enrolled in Sacramento State where he earned a Master's Degree in 1952 and began teaching at Sacramento City College. In 1960, he became assistant professor at the University of California, Davis, where he remained through the 1970s and influenced numerous artist students. However, he did not have much following among Conceptualists because of his adherence to basically traditional disciplines, emphasis on hard work rather than creativity, and love of realism. On a leave of absence, he spent time in New York City where he became friends with Willem De Kooning and Franz Kline and was much influenced by these abstractionists as well as Pop Artists Robert Rauschenberg and Jasper Johns. During this time, he began a series of very small paintings based on images of food displayed in windows, and he focused on their basic shapes. Returning to California, he pursued this subject matter and style, isolating triangles, circles, squares, etc. He also co-founded the Artists Cooperative gallery, now Artists Contemporary Gallery, and other cooperatives including Pond Farm, having been exposed to the concept of cooperatives in New York. Wayne Thiebaud had his first solo show in April 1962 in New York City at the Allan Stone Gallery. His first solo museum show was mounted in San Francisco at the M.H. de Young Memorial Museum in July 1962, and that same year in October, he was included in the group show, New Realists, at Sidney Janis Gallery, New York. In 1963, he turned increasingly to figure painting, wooden and rigid with each detail sharply emphasized; in 1967 his work was shown at the Biennale Internationale, and in 1985, he was elected to the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters. From June to September 3, 2001, The California Palace of the Legion of Honor held a special 80th birthday commemorative exhibition titled: Wayne Thiebaud: A Paintings Retrospective.

Weight 1 lb 4 oz. **In house shipping available on this lot** If you win this lot, please select self arranged for in house shipping when paying**Born in Mesa, Arizona, Wayne Thiebaud became one of the most well-known Pop artists in America. His iconic images of food may have stemmed from his beginnings as a freelance cartoonist in 1939. From 1940 to 1941, he wrote showcards for Sears, Roebuck in Long Beach, California. While serving in the army from 1942 to 1945, Thiebaud worked as a cartoonist, creating a character, Aleck, for the comic strip "Wingtips." He also painted murals for the officers' club and the post theater before being assigned to the first Motion Picture Unit in Culver City, California. In 1946, while employed as a cartoonist, he became an advertising artist in Hollywood for Universal Studios. In 1949 Thiebaud enrolled at California State University at San Jose and subsequently transferred to the university at Sacramento, where he received a B.A. in 1951 and an M.A. in 1952. From 1950 to 1956, he worked on commissions for the California State Fair and Exposition, serving as a design and art consultant. Thiebaud taught studio art and art history at Sacramento City College from 1951 to 1959, becoming chairman of the department in 1954. From 1959 to 1972, he taught at the University of California at Davis. In 1968 he represented the United States in the Sao Paulo Biennial in Brazil. In 1981 the College Art Association named Thiebaud the most distinguished studio teacher of the year. He was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Letters in 1985.

Artist: Wayne Thiebaud (1920-2021). Title: Black and White Park Place. Signature: Pencil signed lower right "Thiebaud 1995". Medium: Hand ground etching with drypoint, spit bite and aquatint . Size image: H - 30.75" W - 22". Size frame: H - 42.25" W - 33.25". Created: 1995. Condition: Good. SFO Museum Deaccessioning Project SFO Museum is conducting a review and downsizing of our holdings that fall outside our collection focus. In the museum profession, this process is called deaccessioning and is a regular part of responsible collections management. It ensures that the museums limited staff resources and storage space are allocated to objects that support and promote the core focus and purpose of the collection. Since the early 2000s, SFO Museums permanent collection has been defined and guided by the following statement: The collection focus of the San Francisco Airport Commission Library and Louis A. Turpen Aviation Museum (AML) is to collect objects and media that document the development, legacy, and cultural context of commercial aviation and the airline industry with an emphasis on the West Coast and Pacific Region, as well as the history and development of San Francisco International Airport (SFO). Since that time, the museum has collected objects, books and archival materials that are tightly focused on the history of commercial aviation and SFO. However, before this collection focus statement was crafted, the SFO Museum accessioned a wide variety of objects, both aviation-related and non-aviation-related alike, that do not fall within the bounds of our current collection focus. To meet our program objectives, SFO Museum has implemented a comprehensive review of its collection holdings acquired through purchase between the 1990s and early 2000s, identifying aviation and non-aviation-related objects that no longer support our collection focus. Objects acquired through donation are not part of this deaccessioning project. The deaccession candidates currently occupy 20% of available museum storage capacity while representing less than 1% of usage in our public programs. The deaccession process adheres to the highest professional standards in accordance with the American Alliance of Museums, San Francisco Airport Commission, and the City and County of San Francisco. Any revenues generated from the public sale of deaccessioned objects will be held in trust, designated for the future acquisition of objects for the San Francisco Airport Commission Library and Louis A. Turpen Aviation Museum. Through responsible collections stewardship, SFO Museum believes that this initiative will help to support our mission for many years to come.

Depicting a table set for breakfast with two sunny-side-up eggs and three strips of bacon. Lot Essay: Wayne Thiebaud was a beloved American painter and printmaker celebrated for transforming everyday objects into luminous works of art that feel both familiar and extraordinary. Best known for his richly colored still lifes of pies, cakes, pastries, and simple meals, Thiebaud used heavy pigment, playful shadows, and a vibrant palette to elevate common subjects into icons of American life, blending elements of realism with a Pop-inflected sensibility while maintaining a uniquely personal, painterly touch. His print Breakfast exemplifies this signature approach, capturing the humble morning meal with fresh immediacy and a pastel-like softness that invites viewers to savor the beauty in the ordinary, reflecting his lifelong fascination with the sensory pleasures and cultural resonance of everyday fare.
