Item Details
Description
IMPORTANT BEVERLY BUCHANAN PAINTING ON CANVAS SIZE 36 x 36 Inches.The item is in excellent condition.Painting is done in a very expressive manner as many of Beverly Buchanan's works are.Warm tones dominate the canvas as the artist explores feelings of belonging. Her particular choice of flowers as a subject theme also carries tone of nostalgia and coziness.Something very present in her "Shack" series.
Famed for her political statements and desire to affect others towards the just causes BEVERLY BUCHANAN uses art to make powerful aesthetic and political statments."Buchanan is best known for her many paintings and sculptures on the "shack," a rudimentary dwelling associated with the poor.Scholar Janet T. Marquardt argues that Buchanan treats shacks not as documentary elements but as "images of endurance and personal history"; often using bright colors and a style of childlike simplicity, the works "evoke the warmth and happiness that can be found even in the meanest dwelling, representing the faith and caring that is not reserved for privileged classes."
Her art takes the form of stone pedestals, bric-a brac assemblages, funny poems, self portraits and sculptural shacks. But potent themes of identity, place and collective memory unite the works uncovering the animus that runs through them: to connect with those around her and reckon with the history that shaped her communities"...Provenance: Private collection purchase.If you would like to receive more information about certification that this piece or any other might have you are more than welcome to contact us directly or trough Live Auctioneers.
