Alfred A. Wolmark, Alfred A. Wolmark's / Pictures. Circa 1920.
Est: $1,000 - $1,500
Alfred A. Wolmark 1877-1961 Alfred A. Wolmark's / Pictures. Circa 1920. Condition A-: minor abrasions at edges; minor creases at edges and in image; linen trimmed to edges. Wolmark was born into a Jewish family in Warsaw that moved to England in the 1880s, where he studied art, and became known for his Fauvist and Post-Impressionist colors and thick paint application. In 1920, artist Joseph Leftwich discussed Wolmark's exhibition at Hampstead art gallery. Leftwich details Wolmark's transformation from painting traditional "Jewish style pictures" to being influenced by Velasquez's art in Spain, to becoming "intoxicated" by French Post-impressionist sensibilities - "he became sick with sun fever. He became pagan. He began to paint sunny fields and dancing girls. He became drunk from light and joy. His pictures became burning colour-harmonies." Leftwich continued on the subject of this exhibition at Hampstead Art Gallery, "Above all Wolmark's chief worth is as a poster artist. He is a colourist-decorator, he creates colour-combinations. . . His pictures in this exhibition belong to this type, and still they show signs of a change. Wolmark is still growing, his great work still needs to be created . . . It seems to me that Wolmark uses his strong colours because he has such an agitated, revolutionary temperament. He revolts against the grey English tones, and he extracts brighter colours from his imagination" (https://benuri.org/). Though only a small handful of posters by this pioneer of British Modernism have come to light, this one certainly illustrates how Wolmark transferred his flair for color and aptitude for line-work into the poster medium. Rare. We have not found a copy at auction since 1990.

However, by 1910, influenced by the movements in modern art both in Britain and on the continent, Wolmark had embarked upon a more radical and vibrantly coloured path. He participated in Roger Fry's seminal exhibition Manet and the Post Impressionists at the Grafton Galleries in 1910, with his work hanging alongside that of Van Gogh. In the summer of 1911, he and his new wife spent their honeymoon at Concarneay in Brittany. It was a trip that would transform Wolmark's painting and cement him as one of the pioneers of the modernist movement in England. Concarneau and the surrounding area was already a popular destination with artists. As never before, Wolmark was exposed to the French Avant-Garde and was profoundly influenced by the Fauves' strong use of colour and fluid composition. He worked prodigiously throughout the ten week trip producing around ninety canvasses. He took as his subject matter the local fisher people such as the present lot, as well as the bustling markets, port and rugged coastal landscape. The work that Wolmark produced in 1911 is some of his best and most significant of his career. The rawness and immediacy of these compositions reveal Wolmark's excitement at having found this new artistic direction. They exude an energy that the young painter undoubtedly felt for his newfound style.

Alfred Aaron WOLMARK (1877-1961) The red cow Oil on panel Signed lower left 40.5 x 51 cm Provenance Christie's sale of the artist's studio collection, February 28, 1983, London Private collection, Paris Born in Warsaw, Poland, Wolmark emigrated to London before training as an artist at the Royal Academy of Arts in London in the 1890s, where he exhibited his work between 1901 and 1936. He returned briefly to Poland in 1903. In his native land, he created works centered on his Jewish identity, in which he idealized the peaceful, contemplative elements of his religion. In 1911, while in France, he was struck by the modernity of French painting, and this was reflected in his palette and style, which became known as Post-Impressionist. He was also one of the English Fauves. His work, totally impacted by color, enabled him to take his color division to a higher level than any of his contemporaries. Wolmark transforms his subjects using flattened forms, constructed with a thickening of the brushstroke. His mastery and use of vivid colors earned him the title of "King of Color". In La vache rouge, the painter is still in the midst of his research into color and tonal separation. He experimented with the three primary colors (red, blue and yellow), making them confront and oppose each other on the canvas by placing them side by side. Not only a painter, Wolmark also created costume and set designs for Diaghilev's ballets in 1911 and illustrated the complete works of writer Israel Zangwill. He also tried his hand at stained glass, producing abstract designs for St. Mary's parish church in Slough in 1915 and painted vase decoration the following year.
