Est: $475 - $525
ARTIST: Dominic Di Mare (California, born 1932) NAME: Self Portrait With Bird YEAR: 1998 MEDIUM: gouache on paper CONDITION: Excellent. Framed under glass. SIGHT SIZE: 9 x 5 1/2 inches / 23 x 14 cm FRAME SIZE: 17 x 12 inches / 43 x 30 cm SIGNATURE: Lower right CATEGORY: antique vintage painting SKU#: 116251 US Shipping $49 + insurance. AD: ART CONSIGNMENTS WANTED. CONTACT US Dominic Di Mare (California, born 1932) Dominic Di Mare grew up in Monterey, California, where his father owned and operated a commerical fishing boat. In the mid-1960s Di Mare, by then a San Francisco high school art teacher and self-taught studio weaver, was in the vanguard of the American fiber-art revolution. Fiercely three-dimensional and composed of a variety of yarns and natural fibers, his early sculptural hangings reveal the influence of tribal art forms. In 1970 Di Mare began to hand-make rag papers. Reaching into the slurry to lift up a layer of pulp stirred deep-seated memories of fishing trips off the coasts of California and Mexico. The bulky sheets of paper appeared like "frozen waves." Inspired by these boyhood memories, Di Mare stopped weaving and began to fabricate enigmatic culptures from handmade papers, polished hawthorne twigs, and feathers. In 1977 and 1981 Di Mare received National Endowment for the Arts fellowships and in 1987 was made a fellow of the American Craft Council.
