Under the Tang China experienced a period of great cultural flowering, remarkable for its achievements across all areas of the arts and sciences. The tolerance of the Tang Imperial Court to outside influence and the free movement along the East- West trade route known as the Silk Road saw major urban centres become thriving cosmopolitan cities, with the Chinese capital, Chang’an (modern Xian) expanding to reach a population of over one million.<br><br>In keeping with centuries of tradition, funerary rites remained very important. A separate government department existed with responsibility for overseeing the manufacture of funerary wares. Officially there were limits on the number of grave goods and restrictions on the size of the objects which could accompany the deceased, according to rank – the highest ranked officials were meant to have a maximum of 90 figurines, no more than 30cm tall while members of the Imperial family were allowed several hundred up to about one meter tall. However, these rules were frequently broken. The deceased’s relatives believed they could improve their ancestor’s status in the afterlife by providing mingqi in excess of necessity, thereby ensuring their own good fortune. Tang Dynasty figurative ceramics share particular characteristics. The forms are animated and life-like, the subject matter covers all aspects of social and ritual life and the scale of the figures was reasonably small with the exception of some magnificent larger works commissioned for the tombs of the elite. Figures of courtiers and entertainers, polo players and the exotic travelers who now regularly arrived in the Chinese cities with their great pack camels became common place, illustrating the cosmopolitan nature of the times. The variety of forms tells us that craftsmen had scope for individual innovation and were not controlled by rules regarding particular styles. Now the funerary wares spoke not only of power and military strength, but also of the sophistication and intellectual achievements of the deceased.

Rouge Mouille (אדום רטוב) של אלכסנדר קלדר כולל רקע של עיגולים אדומים, חלקם מתפזרים כמו פיצוצים, יוצרים תחושה של התרחבות אנרגטית, ואחרים רצים כלפי מטה כאילו זורמים שובלים של מופע זיקוקים. תפאורת אנימציה זו מעוטרת בכדורים עגולים אטומים רבים, שחורים ברובם, אך שזורים בכדורים כחולים, אדומים וצהובים עדינים בולטים. המיקום האסטרטגי של הכדורים הצבעוניים על רקע האדומים הנפיצים לוכד את היראה והמחזה של מופע זיקוקים, והופך את הציור למטאפורה ויזואלית לאירוע מסנוור וחגיגי זה. יצירת האמנות מהדהדת בהתרגשות ובחיוניות, ומתמצתת את יופייה הארעי במדיום סטטי.

Zigzag, Sun, and Crags, painted in 1972, recalls the early morning hour of June 9, 1922 when the young seafaring adventurer Sandy (Alexander) Calder was awakened on the deck of the H. F. Alexander by the intense beams of tropical sunlight that burst across the bow. He stood, squinting against the glare, then turned his head to the west and felt a sudden rush of sensations that brought to him a cosmic resonance he had never felt before. <br><br>“It was early one morning on a calm sea, off Guatemala, when over my couch — a coil of rope — I saw the beginning of a fiery red sunrise on one side and the moon looking like a silver coin on the other. Of the whole trip this impressed me most of all; it left me with a lasting sensation of the solar system.” <br><br>Zignag, Sun, and Crags is not a simple memento of that experience. It is an exhilarating work that celebrates Calder’s inimitable way of imparting the wonder of the natural world by amplifying our experience of it. If, as he might wish, it brings a sense of interconnectedness and belonging as it did to him along the coast of Guatemala as a young Merchant Marine, so much the better.

<div><font face=Calibri size=3 color=black>Harry Bertoia was an authentic visionary in art, and they are rare. Of those whose métier is sculpture, Alexander Calder and Harry Bertoia are the twentieth-century American standouts. They are engineers of beauty; their creative currency is feats of invention and pure artistry that honor our experience of them (if we are willing to quiet our mind) as if a sacred event. It was Duchamp who suggested Calder call his kinetic works “mobiles”, but it was up to Bertoia himself to coin a word to describe something for which there was little precedent. Visually precise, kinetic, and offering resonant, vibratory sound, a “Sonambient” sculpture is at once a metaphor for our sentient experience in the world yet capable of inducing an aura of transcendent experience. Given that insight, it is easy to understand Bertoia’s view that “I don’t hold onto terms like music and sculpture anymore. Those old distinctions have lost all their meaning.”</font></div><br><br><div> </div><br><br><div><font face=Calibri size=3 color=black>The present “Sonambient” sculpture is a forty-eight-inch-tall curtain of thin-gauged tines. Once activated, it becomes a 15 3/4 inch long, 8 inches deep wall of sound. Five rows of narrow tines are staggered in number, alternating between 30 and 29 tines that, when activated, present as an undulating wall of sound. When touched or moved by air currents, the rods produce a sound that, while metallic, does not betray its source of inspiration: the serene connection Bertoia felt in observing the gentle undulating movement of desert grasses. As always, this is a Bertoia sculpture that invites participation in the experience of changing shapes and sounds, a participatory work that asks us to be present in the moment, to connect across time with the object and its creator.</font></div>

The essential and dramatic declaration “Let there be light” of Genesis is not so far removed from Mary Corse’s recollection of the moment in 1968 when the late afternoon sun electrified the reflective road markings of Malibu as she drove east. In an instant, the glowing asphalt markings provided the oracle she needed to realize she could ‘put light in the painting and not just make a picture of light’.  Using the same glass microbeads utilized by road maintenance services, she layers and embeds the prismatic material in bands and geometric configurations creating nuanced glimmering abstract fields which shift as the viewer moves in relationship to the work. Move to one side and dimness brightens to light. Walk back and forth and you might feel a rippling effect from its shimmering, prismatic effects.<br><br>A photographic image of a Mary Corse microsphere painting is not only a dull representation, but it also misses the point – it is experience dependent art that requires participation to ‘be’.  Of course, “Untitled” (1975) defies that one-point static perspective and instead, depends upon a real time, interactive art experience which heightens awareness of the body in space as the viewer experiences shifts of retinal stimulation, sensation and feeling. It is a rare bird.  Unusually petite at two-foot square, its design, geometry and color belie her earlier revelation that led to a devotion to her usual reductive palette. Instead, it is a bold statement in sequined color, its center field bounded at the corners by a sparkling red stepped motif that separates it from its starry night sky corner spandrels. It may not include a star motif, but it has the glamour and presence that belongs along Hollywood’s Walk of Fame.

<div><font face=Lato size=3>Andy Warhol’s <em>Mao</em> (1972) is one of the artist’s most iconic and provocative screenprints, reflecting his fascination with the intersection of political power and celebrity culture. This impression, numbered 244/250, comes from the regular edition of 250, in addition to 50 artist’s proofs. Warhol based the image on the widely circulated official portrait of Chairman Mao Zedong, a figure whose likeness was omnipresent in China during the Cultural Revolution.

Signed and dated by the artist in 1970, the print has not previously appeared at auction. Thiebaud, a central figure in Post-War American art, is celebrated for his luminous depictions of everyday objects, most notably desserts and consumer goods, that situate him at the intersection of Pop Art’s engagement with mass culture and a painterly sensibility indebted to Impressionism.</font></div><br><br><div> </div><br><br><div><font face=Lato size=3 color=black>Decadent rows of chocolate-topped pastries are presented in neat sequence, echoing the logic of bakery displays while transforming a familiar confection into a cultural icon.

מסוף שנות החמישים ועד אמצע שנות השישים, תרומותיו המוקדמות של ריי פארקר לציור שדה הצבע בולטות להפליא באיכותן התוססת והרעננה. פארקר סידר שני בלוקים צבעוניים חזקים או יותר בעלי קצוות מחוספסים בטכניקה נמרצת ומברישה על קנבסים גדולים שהוכנו בג'סו. בלוקים אלה, המעובדים בצבעים רוויים אך מלאי חיים בעדינות, מפגינים אנרגיה ייחודית. בעוד שהקומפוזיציות של פארקר עשויות להזכיר את אלה של רותקו, האופן שבו הצבע מועבר - בצורה מוצקה ועוצמתית - מבדיל ביניהן. תוך שמירה על קנה המידה הגדול והדינמיות של אסכולת ניו יורק, עבודתו של פרקר מתפצלת בכך שהיא מוותרת על העוצמה הרגשית המזוהה לעתים קרובות עם אקספרסיוניזם מופשט ומאמצת חזון של תנועה נטולת הפאתוס האופייני לה.

This well preserved bell is one of the largest known bronzes from the Southeast Asian Bronze Age, generally named after the Dongson site in North Vietnam.  The swirling band design is finely and crisply cast. Dongson bronze drums were also reported in South China, Thailand, Laos, West Malaysia, and Indonesia and as Far East as Western Iranian Java. <br><br>The Dong Son culture is a Bronze age culture including all of southeast Asia and into the Indo-Malaya Archipelago from about 1000 to 1 BC. Centered on the Red River Valley of Vietnam, the Dong Son were sophisticated agriculturalists, raising rice and buffalo. Dong Son probably arose from local Neolithic cultures, such as Phung Nguyen and Dong Dau phases. Dong Son is identified with the Van Lang ruling dynasty, the first ruling dynasty of Vietnam. By the second century BC, impacts from the Han Dynasty in China were being felt and according to historic records, the Dong Son were absorbed into the Han Dynasty territory.

<div><font face=Lato size=3 color=black>Wayne Thiebaud’s <em>Breakfast</em>, from an edition of 50, demonstrates the artist’s signature blend of Pop-inflected realism and painterly intimacy. Executed in colored drypoint, the work captures the simple subject of a morning meal with a remarkable freshness: hatching lines soften and blur the composition, creating a pastel-like effect that distinguishes it from the crispness of commercial print design. Though slightly faded, the impression retains the playful chromatic sensibility and softly modeled shadowing that became hallmarks of Thiebaud’s style.</font></div><br><br><div><font face=Lato size=3> </font></div><br><br><div><font face=Lato size=3 color=black>Since the early 1960s, Thiebaud has been celebrated for his depictions of food—cakes, pies, gumball machines, and diner counters—rendered not as literal meals but as cultural icons, at once nostalgic and idealized.

<div><font face=Lato size=3 color=black>Ed Ruscha’s <em>Metro, Petro, Neuro, Psycho</em>, from an edition of 25 with 10 artist proofs, exemplifies the artist’s ongoing investigation into the visual and conceptual potential of language. In this work, stacked words unfold like an architectural structure, their rhyming syllables generating a verbal beat that underscores Ruscha’s fascination with the rhythm and absurdity of text. Letters become forms, spacing becomes structure, and typography itself takes on the weight of image.</font></div><br><br><div><font face=Lato size=3> </font></div><br><br><div><font face=Lato size=3 color=black>Bridging Ruscha’s iconic word paintings of the 1960s with his more layered experiments of the 1980s and beyond, the print embodies his approach to isolating fragments of language—billboard slogans, overheard words, or invented phrases—so they can be reconsidered as both visual and semantic phenomena. Ruscha himself has described such arrangements as “visual noise,” simultaneously playful and disorienting. Institutional recognition of the work’s importance is affirmed by examples in the Museum of Modern Art, New York, and the National Gallery of Art, Washington.</font></div>
