Circus Acrobats - ( Friends with Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo )
-
Description
As they take center stage, four acrobats are depicted, forming an architectural structure composed of contorted human bodies. The small gallery of onlookers displays a variety of expressions. Painted during the peak of the "American Regionalism" movement, the painting gives insight into what was most likely a small itinerant circus. Lucile Blanch completed the painting a year after she received a Guggenheim Foundation Fellowship in 1933 and a few years before she worked with artist Philip Evergood and George Picken in administrating the WPA Project in New York. Signed lower right. Framed size 42 x 32
