Although the female figure in ‘Girl with Acacia Tree’ was likely modeled on ’s wife, Eileen, the painting was not intended to be a portrait. In Eileen’s own words about her husband’s work “The mass, not the line plane, interests him.”

Described as an “ultra-modernist,” Jackson’s work reflects his meticulous understanding of the harmonies of form and color that evoke a sense of beauty. In ‘Girl with Acacia Tree’ he employs a limited, muted palette, applying the paint thickly and roughly on the canvas, giving it a dry affect similar to a fresco mural.

From 1935 to 1942, produced works that mark him as a pioneer of American surrealism. ‘Old Man Holding Child’ is an excellent example of his work in the genre. While the individual components of the composition are readily identifiable, their mode of presentation is disjunctive and disquieting.

The figural group appears to be a carved wood statue, set against a background of land, sea, and sky. While the subject matter and the draped clothing of the elder male suggest an ancient or biblical narrative, the child clucthes a blue ball, a distinctly contemporary attribute. As Marinko himself took pains to explain, the meaning of any of his work is in the intersection of his subconcious and the perceptions of the viewer.

left Illinois for New York City to study at Pratt Institute of Brooklyn with $300 borrowed from her mother. After graduating in 1901, she split her time between teaching and traveling the world, spending time in locales such as Venice, Madrid, Paris, Egypt, Algiers, and Constantinople. She also explored the American Southwest, the Canadian Northwest, and the art colonies of New England.

Peterson’s work is currently on view in ‘Women’s Work: Beyond Craft and Convention.”

Thank you to Max Norman and the New York Times for a wonderful article on Cornelia Foss and her "Little Reds," currently on view at Hirschl & Adler (through December 12).

About the show, Norman writes:

“These paintings vibrated with unnerving, even chaotic energy, set in an uncanny world that was equal parts nightmare and fable. The buoyant mood at the opening — visitors streamed by to congratulate Ms. Foss or pose for pictures — contrasted sharply with the ominous motif in the paintings: a wolf stalking the smudged red cape and white stockings of a small girl through forest and field.”
