    Jan. 23, 2025

    James G. Davis Mixed Media "The Last Neanderthal" 1999

    Est: $800 - $1,200

    James G. Davis (American, 1931-2016). "The Last Neanderthal" mixed media (printed image, colored pencil, glitter, fabric, decorative paper, and hair) 1999. Title, "P.P." (printer's proof), artist's signature, and date handwritten in pencil below the image. A captivating mixed media work that features two figures seated at a counter, the primary figure wearing a bright patterned shirt and holding a cheeseburger, the second figure, perhaps his shadow, highlighted in red behind. To the left is a standing figure wearing long black trench coat who is painting images of mammoths and a jaguar on a wall, suggesting that he is "The Last Neanderthal" referred to in the title and is creating an impressive cave painting. A striking piece by Davis who is known for figurative pieces that explore mythological and historical references as well as gender and social status issues that often have a metaphorical twist. Size (image): 16" L x 20" W (40.6 cm x 50.8 cm) Size (sheet): 18.75" L x 22" W (47.6 cm x 55.9 cm) About the Artist: "James G. Davis was born in Springfield, Missouri in 1931. He received his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree (1959) and his Master of Fine Arts degree (1962) from Wichita State University.

His paintings are in many museum collections, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the Hirshhorn Museum and National Gallery in Washington D.C. The artist's style of portraying his observations of the world around him has yielded a body of work both provocative and beautiful. James G. Davis died in September, 2016.
