Purvis Young Signed Horses And Trucks Large 49" Original Painting with COA

Description: Artist: Purvis Young Title: Horses And Trucks Medium: Original painting on board Size: 24" x 49" Edition: Original Inscription: Signed Condition: Very good condition. Documentation: Includes Certificate of Authenticity from the Purvis Young Foundation As a folk art artist, Purvis Young often depicts the theme of the symbiosis of nature and human progress in his works. There is a unique charm in the artwork "Horses And Trucks" in its harmony, comprehensiveness, volume, hypnotism. Young emphasizes the balance of light and shadow, the acuteness of forms, and the merging of brushstrokes. The color contrast invites one to feel different emotions. In addition to contrast, "random" abstract strokes become not just an artist's style expression but a thoughtful background and clear horizon. Purvis Young's art is autobiographical in a way that outstretches its obvious symbolism. His unique painting style reveals his self-taught history and highlights themes important in his life. Young knows how to involve the viewer in the story and allow him to turn into an author. "Horses And Trucks" is signed by the artist and includes a certificate of authenticity from the Purvis Young Foundation. This piece is currently not framed. The photo showing the frame is a mockup of a frame and what it would look like framed. If you would like the piece framed we can work with our local framer at our discounted price to pick out the perfect frame for your home. About Purvis Young Self-taught artist from a poverty stricken neighborhood of Miami, Purvis Young transformed his fraught yet inspired life experience into a unique and compelling visual vocabulary. Through a range of powerful symbols, he articulated the struggles and myths of his heritage. Drawing from a range of sources such as documentaries, art books, American history and spiritual folklore, Young crafted an immense visual language comprised of motifs such as white horses offering freedom, halos signifying angles, pregnant women with the hope of tomorrow, processions and incarceration, among others. Telling simple, yet powerful stories of everyday life, the artist expressed his community and ethnic background. Using found objects from his neighborhood, such as cardboard, discarded political signs, used paper, doors, plywood scraps, metal sheets, carpet remnants, he transformed these surfaces into richly colored and highly expressionist paintings. Although Young is often associated with Outsider Art, his style could best be described as “Magic realism.” In 2016, his life and work were the subject of a feature documentary entitled Purvis of Overtown. He was a recipient of the Artists/Fellowship grant from the National Endowment for the Arts and was included into the Florida Artist Hall of Fame in 2018. His work is found in the collections of the American Folk Art Museum, the Corcoran Gallery of Art, the High Museum of Art, the National Museum of African American History and Culture, and the Philadelphia Museum of Art, among others. The subjects of Purvis Young celebrated and historicized the neighborhood where he had spent his entire life. Even though his works chronicled struggle, they always contained an underlining hope for a better future. Purvis Young was born in 1943 in Overtown neighborhood of Miami, Florida and died in 2010 in Miami. In 2015, almost 400 pieces of Young’s art were donated by The Bass Museum of Art to the permanent collection in the Black Archives History and research Foundation of South Florida located in the heart of Purvis’ hometown.
