  • Vance Kirkland "Four Suns in Space, 1971" Offset Lithograph
    Apr. 27, 2024

    Vance Kirkland "Four Suns in Space, 1971" Offset Lithograph

    Est: $800 - $1,600

    Vance Kirkland (1904–1981) was an American painter known for his abstract and surrealist works that often explored themes of nature, spirituality, and the cosmos. Born in Convoy, Ohio, Kirkland studied at the Cleveland School of Art before moving to Denver, Colorado, where he became a prominent figure in the regional art scene.Kirkland's early works were influenced by European modernism and Surrealism, but he soon developed his own unique style characterized by bold colors, swirling forms, and dreamlike imagery. He was particularly interested in the interplay of light and color, and he experimented with various techniques to create luminous and ethereal effects in his paintings.One of Kirkland's most famous series is his "Dot Paintings," which he began in the 1930s. These paintings feature intricate patterns of dots and lines, often arranged in concentric circles or geometric shapes. Kirkland believed that these paintings had a meditative and spiritual quality, and he saw them as a way to explore the mysteries of the universe.In addition to his paintings, Kirkland was also a talented muralist and teacher, and he played a key role in the development of the Denver art community. He founded the Kirkland School of Art (later renamed the Kirkland Museum of Fine & Decorative Art) and mentored many aspiring artists throughout his career.Kirkland's work continues to be celebrated for its innovation, imagination, and spiritual depth. His paintings are held in numerous public and private collections, and his legacy as one of the leading figures of the Colorado art scene endures to this day. Measures 58.0 x 31.1.
