      R.L. WICKISER (1910-1998) WATERCOLOR GOUACHE

      Est: $1,600 - $1,900

      Ralph Lewanda Wickiser (1910 - 1998) Original 1945 Watercolor / Gouache Landscape. Signed and dated lower right. Professionally framed and matted. In frame measures 31"x24"x1". Weight 8 pds. Ralph Wickiser gained renown for his ever-evolving style of symbolic art drawn from nature, at once expressive and intimate. Trained at the Art Institute of Chicago, Wickiser began as a representational artist in the 1930s and evolved into Abstract Expressionism in the 1950s and 60s. He would then segue into modes of representational abstraction in the 1970s, only to push new boundaries with his purified and flattened analytical abstractions of trees and reflections in the late 1980s. Wickiser was included in the 1953 Annual at the Whitney Museum in the company of colleagues Milton Avery, Adolph Gottlieb, and Willem de Kooning. As an abstract painter, he founded the graduate fine arts program at Pratt Institute in 1962, and his faculty included Franz Kline, Philip Pearlstein, Roy Lichtenstein, and Jacob Lawrence. As a Woodstock Artist Association insider and head of the Pratt Institutes Master of Fine Art program, Wickiser worked closely with friends Yasuo Kuniyoshi, Jacob Lawrence, Stephen Pace, Franz Kline, and Philip Pearlstein.
