About the Item

MARK DI SUVERO Abstract Expressionist drawing with artist signed COA, ca. 1963 Pen and black ink and brush and black ink wash on paper. Hand signed on the front. Framed, with separate signed and blind stamped Certificate of Authenticity signed by the artist Provenance: Tasende Gallery, California Measurements: Framed: 15 inches x 17 inches x .05 inches Artwork : 13 1/2 inches × 16 3/4 inches Rare and elusive early di Suvero gestural abstraction ink wash drawing from the 1950s. The work is framed in a blond wood frame and signed in black ink on the recto. Tasende Gallery label verso. The artwork itself is hand signed on the front by the artist, but it's also accompanied by a blind stamped Certificate of Authenticity, hand signed by di Suvero - hence two signatures. More about Mark di Suvero: Di Suvero was born in 1933 in Shanghai, China to Italian parents. In 1941 his family emigrated from China to California, where di Suvero received his B.A. in Philosophy from the University of California, Berkeley. In 1957 di Suvero moved to New York, and in 1960 he had his first, widely praised exhibition at the Green Gallery. He later co-founded the Park Place Gallery, an artist-run cooperative where he exhibited through 1967. In 1986 he established Socrates Sculpture Park in Long Island City, NY, converting a previous landfill into a lively exhibition space for artists of all ages and a park for neighborhood residents. Di Suvero’s distinctive and epic assemblages of steel and wood are in museums and public collections around the world and have enhanced public spaces for decades. He was given his first retrospective exhibition in 1975 at the Whitney Museum of American Art. Other major exhibitions include: Le Jardin des Tuileries, Paris in 1975 (where he was the first living artist to show his work); the Storm King Art Center, Mountainville, New York in 1985, 1995-96, 2005-06 and 2008; a citywide exhibition in Venice, Italy in 1995; the citywide exhibition Mark di Suvero in Paris, France in 1997; Millennium Park, Chicago, Illinois in 2007; and Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden, Coral Gables, Florida in 2008. Among the awards he has received are the Lifetime Achievement in Contemporary Sculpture Award from the International Sculpture Center, the Public Art Network Award given by Americans for the Arts and the Heinz Award for the Arts and Humanities. -Courtesy of Paula Cooper Gallery
