DESCRIPTION
RARE 1994 DUANE HANSON EXHIBIT CATALOGUE SIGNED, DEDICATED AND AUTOGRAPHED
we also have a rare Roy Lichtenstein signed and autographed catalogue in our store.
This is the official 1994 Duane Hanson exhibit catalogue from his Montreal Museum of Fine Arts retrospective, in which I was present. Signed in his presence two years before his death, the dedication is in very large lettering, in blue pen, and reads : "With best wishes, from Duane Hanson, Montreal, Feb 1994"
The catalogue is 109 pages in length, with the self portrait of the artist on the cover. Many of his iconic lifelike realistic sculptures accompanied by excellent curator commentaries are enclosed. If you have any questions, kindly forward them. Size: 12" by 9", Mint, intact, fresh full and very big signature. Background: The captivating work of great American realist Hanson, now acknowledged as one of the 20th century's preeminent sculptors. Hanson specialized in static, life-size portraits cast from live models in polyester resin and fiberglass. Many of them possess a sadness or resignation indicative of the despair that lurks beneath the apparent calmness of everyday life. These tumescent, hyperreal human figures haunt any viewer who encounters them in person, often fooling onlookers into thinking that the figures are actually alive. Duane Hanson (1925-1996) was a significant American sculptor known for his hyper-realistic figures. Raised on a Minnesota farm, Hanson was proud of his family's solid middle-class values. His first realistic sculptures were produced in the turbulent years of the 1960s and reflected the social and political climate of the era. By 1970, Hanson had developed his mature style of portraying American "types"--shoppers, tourists, children, workers, and businessmen.
We will insure the item for at least 2000 dollars.
