AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Silkscreen print signed, dated, and numbered in pencil by the artist.
Edition of 150 copies on Arches paper. (The numbering may differ from what is visible in the photograph)
In perfect condition.
Careful packaging and international tracked shipping.
Born in 1925 in New York (the Bronx), Yitzroch Loiza Grossbergvit, and he worked in New York. He first studied music at the Juilliard School in New York (1944-1945), where he befriended Miles Davis and became a jazz saxophonist under the pseudonym Larry Rivers. From 1947 to 1951, he pursued artistic instruction with Hans Hofmann and then took art history courses at New York University.
His first solo exhibition took place in 1949. In the early 1950s he reintroduced figuration into American painting and then offered a very personal take on Pop Art, by distorting the codes of great paintings that have marked the history of art, such as Courbet's Burial at Ornans or Manet's Olympia.
Larry Rivers died in August 2002 in Southampton, United States.
