    Color lithograph on wove paper, acrylic and paper construction in plexiglas box USA, 1987 Donna Dennis (b. 1942) – American painter and sculptor ‘Deep Station/A View From the Tracks’ and 3D Construction Each signed and dated in pencil lower right ‘Donna Dennis 1987’ ‘Deep Station’ numbered in pencil 48/55 Published by John Szoke Editions, with blind stamp lower right ‘Deep Station’ image dimensions: 20 ¼ x 30 ¼ in. (51.4 x 76.8 cm.); Sheet dimensions: 25 ¾ x 35 ¼ in. (65.4 x 89.5 cm.); Frame dimensions: 27 ¼ x 36 ½ in. (69.2 x 92.7 cm.) ‘Construction’ dimensions: 19 x 19 ¾ x 13 in. (48.3 x 50.2 x 33 cm.) Very good condition Estimate $700-$900 Provenance Albright-Knox Art Gallery Deep inside the interior of the New York City subway, “Deep Station” by American artist Donna Dennis depicts a view of an empty subway platform from the tracks. Bathed in shadow, the platform glows with artificial light, the center of the image highlighted with small pops of color. Full of energy and mystery, this work represents the rhythms and realities of everyday life from an industrial point of view. The artist also created a massive sculptural installation of a New York subway station at the Brooklyn Art Museum in the same year. Dennis’s skill as an architect and sculptor is demonstrated here in her three-dimensional construction of a Manhattan roof deck at twilight. Donna Dennis (American, b. 1942) Springfield, Ohio native Donna Dennis was encouraged to pursue art from a young age and went on to attend Carleton College and Art Students League. She instinctively transitioned from painting to sculpting in the late 1960’s while finding inspiration from various artists like Lee Bontecou, Edward Hopper, and Berenice Abbott and second-wave feminism. Her first solo show occurred in 1973 in New York, and she was awarded the Creative Artists Public Service grant in 1975. Gaining international recognition for her architectural installations by the 1980’s, her works can be viewed in the public collections of the Smithsonian American Art Museum, Ludwig Forum fur Internationale Kunst, and Cleveland Art Museum. Condition Each in overall good condition, unexamined out of frame. Shipping costs excl. statutory VAT and plus 2,5% (+VAT) shipping insurance.
