This is an absolutely fantastic Original Mixed Media (acrylic and watercolor) on Paper painting by Listed Artist, Larry Walker (b. 1935). Walker is a very distinguished artist and educator, and his works fetch four and five figures. Swann Galleries just sold one for almost $12,000 in Oct 2019 and more recent auctions continue to demonstrate the demand for his work. His biography is below and there is a wealth of information about him available online, including a very in-depth review of his 2016 New York show in Art in America.
This brilliant piece is a very strong example of his work. It explores themes of life and death with haunting imagery. It looks to be a combination of acrylic, watercolor, and oil pencil. It is signed in the lower right as shown. Titled "Fallout 3" in pen on the back. It isn't dated but the original framing looked 1970s. We have custom framed this piece using acid-free matting and a high-end faux snakeskin black molding. We have included plexiglass for safety in shipping but we recommend replacing it with UV glass for maximum protection. A wonderful piece for the collector.
• Certification: Gallery Certificate of Authenticity Included for items that sell for over $500. For all others, certificates are available for purchase.
• Condition: Painting is in excellent condition. Brand new high-end custom archival framing. Plexiglass is included for safety in shipping, but we recommend replacing it with UV glass for maximum protection.
• Measurements: Sight size is approx 17"x13" and it is approx 21.5"x17.5" framed.
• About the Artist: Walker utilizes painting, drawing, collage, and mixed materials as the primary processes for his work. His career spans 50+ years and includes an extensive exhibition record: more than 200 invitational and juried group presentations and sixty solo exhibitions in galleries, museums, and art centers in various parts of the country.
Walker’s work is included in the permanent collections of numerous museums, private collectors, and corporations, including The Museum of Contemporary Art of Georgia (MOCA GA); The Studio Museum in Harlem; The Huntsville Museum; The Los Angeles County Museum; The Collection of Hallmark Cards Inc.; The High Museum; The Georgia Museum of Art; The African American Museum in Dallas and other publicly accessible sites.
Walker, the youngest of eleven was born in Franklin, GA. Following the death of his father in 1936, Walker’s formative years were spent in New York City. There, he graduated from the High School of Music & Art before relocating to Detroit, MI for college. He has a BS in Art Education and an MA in Drawing and Painting from Wayne State University.
His 42-year academic experience included six years in Detroit Public Schools, 19 years at the University of the Pacific in Stockton, CA (7 years as Department Chairman) and 17 years at Georgia State University in Atlanta, GA (11 years as Director of the School of Art and Design).
Now retired as a Professor Emeritus, Walker continues to add credits to his substantial accomplishments as an artist, visual arts supporter, juror, and curator.
