ed. 190/300. Milton H. Greene (1922-1985) was an American photographer best known for his photoshoots with Marilyn Monroe. He initially built a career in fashion and celebrity photography, creating work that appeared in well-known magazines such as Vogue. He earned the moniker of "Color Photography's Wonder Boy," and his 1954 photograph of Marilyn Monroe in a ballet tutu was proclaimed by Time Life to be one of the three most popular images of the 20th century.

Elizabeth Martineau, a Haitian artist born in Port-au-Prince, was shaped by an artistic milieu, raised in the home of her uncle, architect and sculptor Albert Mangones, co-founder of Haiti’s Centre d’Art. Exiled during youth, she engaged with artists like Fernando Botero in Colombia and Lois Mailou Jones in Washington, DC. Martineau’s technique involves layering paper on Arches paper or canvas, painting with acrylics, and outlining subjects in bold black, accentuated by vibrant colors and gold streaks. Her works, depicting serene figures, priestesses, and masks, evoke Caribbean and African themes. She holds degrees from the University of Medellín and Corcoran School of Art.

Otto Neumann (1895-1975) was a German expressionist painter and printmaker. Neumann made work based on the human form and his own literary interests, including Dante's Inferno, African fairy tales, and the Passion of Christ. During the Nazi regime, Neumann's work was labeled as "degenerate"; his refusal to divorce his Jewish wife, Hilde (whose family later fled the country) further hurt his prospects. After the war he still took an interest with the subjects of classical antiquity and myth, but never returned to the medium of oil or watercolor. He became depressed and reliant on medication, and eventually self-admitted to a sanitarium, but continued to work. It was only a year after Hilde's death in 1970 that he stopped producing work entirely. Many artists that were young during the later part of Neumann's career drew inspiration from and identified with his highly abstracted forms. Much of Neumann's earlier work, on the other hand, would have been destroyed by the artist himself had it not been for Hilde taking and storing them. It is thanks to her that, to this day, some of his early work is still known and regarded highly.

Donald Baechler (1956-2022), a New York-based painter and sculptor, made work that largely dealt in childlike themes. He repeatedly drifted towards subjects like balls, blocks, figures, and flowers, and his work was noted to be playful, sunny, and animated - vivid colors, nostalgic imagery, and expressive figures drawing in audiences both young and old. His work is a part of several museum collections, including the MoMA, the Museum of Fine Arts Boston, and the Guggenheim.

Silver dye bleach print

Edition of 11/25. Sandy Skoglund (b. 1946) has a style of photography that is characterized by "[embracing] blatant artificiality," delightful compositions that intentionally repeat patterns and capture viewers with an emphasis on a particular color, and a focus on the subjects of food and animals. She is particularly interested in combining the aesthetics of corporate advertising with the fine art world, expanding on both traditions with a playful exuberance and strong conceptual core.

Artist proof. Frank Rowland (1927-2012) was born in Pennsylvania and honed his skills at schools including (but not limited to) the School of Display Art in Pittsburgh and the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. He was a master serigrapher and boasted a vast body of works in a variety of mediums - paintings, drawings, photos, and murals along with his prints. Not only did he produce an admirable amount of personal work, but he was also involved in commercial architecture, industrial design, movie set design, museum exhibits, and filmmaking. His legacy is one of variety and vibrance, much like his work: Rowland never let himself be confined to one specific style, tradition, or medium.

Otto Neumann (1895-1975) was a German expressionist painter and printmaker. Neumann made work based on the human form and his own literary interests, including Dante's Inferno, African fairy tales, and the Passion of Christ. During the Nazi regime, Neumann's work was labeled as "degenerate"; his refusal to divorce his Jewish wife, Hilde (whose family later fled the country) further hurt his prospects. After the war he still took an interest with the subjects of classical antiquity and myth, but never returned to the medium of oil or watercolor. He became depressed and reliant on medication, and eventually self-admitted to a sanitarium, but continued to work. It was only a year after Hilde's death in 1970 that he stopped producing work entirely. Many artists that were young during the later part of Neumann's career drew inspiration from and identified with his highly abstracted forms. Much of Neumann's earlier work, on the other hand, would have been destroyed by the artist himself had it not been for Hilde taking and storing them. It is thanks to her that, to this day, some of his early work is still known and regarded highly.
