This is just a great original piece. I did not know who Richard Filipowski was when I was first offered this painting. This and the other work were acquired as part of a collection I acquired from the neighbor of the artist. She had acquired the works many years ago directly from the artist. For those not familiar with the artist, I have included his biography below. This is really a great work. A mixed media of ink and marker on paper. Image measures 7 1/2 x 4 1/2 inches on original sheet measuring 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches. Signed and dated lower right corner. The work is in outstanding condition. Really a beautiful work with great detail as well as the wonderful shapes and colors. The page is archival floated with white backing and matte that really makes the piece stand out. Simple black frame is complimentary and ready to hang. Frame measures 15 1/4 x 11 3/4 inches. If you collect FIlipowski or just love his work, check my store for the other work I am offering.
For those not familiar with the artist his biography from a major American gallery that sells the artist's work reads:"Richard Filipowski (Polish, 1923-2008) was a United States-based artist and member of the New Bauhaus. Born in Poland in 1923, Filipowski’s family emigrated to Canada in 1927. Inspired by his teenage discovery of a Museum of Modern Art exhibition catalog on the Bauhaus school, FIlipowski decided to pursue a formal eduction in the arts. Upon the completion of his studies, Filipowski sought out Lazlo Moholy-Nagy, a founding member at the New Bauhaus, appealing to him for his mentorship. So impressed by the young Filipowski’s talents and tenacity, Moholy-Nagy invited him to join his program. There he was instructed across a range of media, including painting and metalwork, all under the tenants and style of the Bauhaus. A remarkable apprentice, Filipowski was eventually asked to join the Faculty at the New Bauhaus where he taught along side Walter Gropius and Marcel Breuer from 1946-1950. He would subsequently go on to hold positions at the Institute of Design in Chicago as well as the Harvard School of Design and MIT in Boston.
While Filipowski was a prolific artist, creating hundreds of drawings, paintings, sculptures, he was deeply private about his personal creative endeavors. Referring to them as “art of the psyche”, he believe that they were purely a process of self-expression and exploration, a personal endeavor not need not be subject to criticism of commercialization. This impulse towards privacy, coupled with his lifelong dedication to educating others, are contributing factors to his having achieved less notoriety than some of his Bauhaus peers."
