Frank Marc saw a purity in animals that was in stark contrast to the ‘ugliness’ of man. His “Dog Lying in the Snow” (1911) @staedelmuseum depicts the artist’s Siberian Shepherd Dog, Russi. #art
I am going to spotlight the rather strange art of Antoine Wiertz this week. This is his “The Premature Burial” (1854) @ Wiertz Museum, Brussels #art
One of the highlights of #WWIAftermath @Tate was the room featuring prints from Otto Dix’s “Der Krieg” series of 1924. Blistering stuff! #art #WWI #GreatWar
A member of the Dallas Nine, Everett Spruce was born in Arkansas. His childhood in the Ozarks would prove a major influence, informing expressionistic canvases such as “The Hawk” (1939) @MuseumModernArt #art
Jerry Bywaters was, like Alexandre Hogue, a member of the Dallas Nine. His best works, such as “Share Cropper” (1937) @DallasMuseumArt , focus upon the day-to-day struggles of ordinary people during the Great Depression.
