Oil on canvas
30" x 39"
A view of a town in Mexico, where Niewald spent time from 1970-71. Titled to the reverse. Presented in a simple slat frame that measures 30 3/4" x 39 3/4".
Wilbur Niewald has been dubbed "the Patriarch of the Kansas City Art World" by Julián Zugazagoitia, director of the Nelson-Atkins Gallery of Art. Each of Niewald's paintings offered in this auction date from the 1970s, a decade pivotal to his identity as an artist, transitioning from a distinct abstract style to one more resolutely based on natural observation. In addition to a career of creating exciting and influential works of his own, Niewald joined the Kansas City Art Institute's faculty in 1949, where over the course of several decades in a variety of roles (including the Chair of Painting and Printmaking) he helped shape KCAI pedagogy and prepare generations of contemporary artists.
Provenance : From the corporate art collection of a Kansas City based Fortune 500 company, previously acquired directly from the artist.
Condition

The issues did not result in any notable loss to the paint layer. No in-painting or over-painting observed under blacklight inspection.
