Browse Results

Working on canvas and wooden support, Bernard Réquichot danced the fine line between figurative and abstract forms to produce surrealist compositions with an allure of familiarity. His paintings included collage elements from printed imagery, further enticing the viewer to identify the pictorial references. Réquichot had one solo exhibition with famed Paris art dealer Daniel Cordier before his untimely death in 1961. His work has been widely exhibited and discussed in scholarly publications posthumously.

Works by Janice Biala, Joe Brainard, William Grosvenor Congdon, Lynne Drexler, Helen Frankenthaler, Karl Knaths, Paul Jenkins, Merton Simpson, and Jane Wilson are also featured in our fall Modern & Post-War Art auction.
