George Rickey 1907 - 2002

George Rickey was an American artist whose Kinetic Art sculptures poeticized the medium of steel in a transformative manner, as seen in his hallmark work Breaking Columns (1989). “The object was for the pieces to perform as they could, and I wanted their movement to be slow, unhampered, deliberate—but at the same time unpredictable,” Rickey once explained. “As for shape, I wanted only the most ordinary shapes—simple, hackneyed, geometrical. I wanted whatever eloquence there was to come out of the performance of the piece—never out of the shape itself.” Born on June 6, 1907 in South Bend, IN, he grew up outside of Glasgow, where his father worked as an executive for the Singer Sewing Machine Company. Studying history at Baillol College in Oxford, he received his formal art training under Fernand Léger and Amédée Ozenfant at the Académie Lhote and the Académie Moderne in Paris. Despite beginning as a painter, while serving in World War II for the United States, Rickey worked as mechanic for gunnery and aircraft. His time working with machinery, revived his childhood interest in mechanical systems, and he began producing simple moving sculptures after the war. Over the years, his works were exhibited at The Museum of Modern Art in New York, documenta III in Kassel, and commissioned for several public spaces around the world. The artist died at the age of 95 on July 17, 2002 in Saint Paul, MN. Today, his works are held in the collections of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., the Honolulu Museum of Art, and the San Diego Museum of Art, among others.

Eva van Rijn

The Blues of Black Canyon

Oil on canvas on board, 24 by 30 inches, signed LL, 2013

From her website:

I was born in The Hague, Holland in 1936 and emigrated to the United States with my parents during WW2. My family moved to Woodstock, N.Y. when I was eight, and I was inspired from an early age by the excitement and creativity of the Woodstock art environment. I took a year off from college to study at the Academia De Belle Arte in Florence, Italy where my mother had been a student before me. After college I married Painter-sculptor Edward Chavez, an abstract artist, and when our daughter Maia (now also an artist) was in college, I studied art and art history at Yale University.Landscape and wildlife are my inspiration. With fisherman Dick Strain I am fortunate enough to travel to many of the world's wildest places. I always carry a back pack with painting supplies. Pleine Aire painting provides the source material for my studio works.
