Benjamin Edgar Shute (American (Georgia/ Wisconsin), 1905-1986). "Seagulls", acrylic on canvas, signed lower left. Large painting depicting a flock of seagulls on a beach to foreground and in flight above blue waves crashing onto the rocky shore, the beach flanked to left and right by high rocky embankments, the background with expansive sea punctuated by islands to left and right along horizon line below dark and stormy skies. Framed approximately 38.5" x 48.5", unframed approximately 30" x 40". Note: Ben Shute (American, 1905-1986) was an artist, arts advocate and co-founder of the Atlanta College of Art. Shute trained at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and then moved to Atlanta in 1928 to work temporarily for the High Museum School of Art in a teaching capacity. His position and efforts with the High Museum School of Art were long lasting--he worked at the institution for approximately six decades, and helped build the art school's reputation through its national accreditation. In the mid 1940s, Shute established the Southeastern Annual Exhibition that showcased work from 9 states in the Southern region. His work has been included in exhibitions at the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA), New York, Art Institute of Chicago, the Brooklyn Museum, and Corcoran Gallery in Washington D.C. In 1985, the artist was awarded the Governor's Award in the Arts for Georgia.Prior to bidding, please consult the additional photos provided and ask all pertinent questions (i.e. condition, size, etc.).
