- Lot Description
Morris Gaylord Broderson (American, 1928-2011), untitled (figural, perhaps David) pastel, 1962. Signed and dated on the lower left by the artist. Morris Broderson was an artist who worked in a variety of media, including oil, watercolor, and pastel as we see in this example depicting a male nude hurling a stone. His figural compositions project humankind's physical and emotive responses to the world in vibrant hues. In his early works, Broderson engaged with allegorical themes such as the Crucifixion and perhaps David in this example. What's more he was inspired by poet Garcia Lorca and Kabuki legends. Later works represent both common and relatively exotic subjects, flowers, textiles, vases, and portraiture. His images border on fantasy, conjuring layered associations and references. Size: 39.5" L x 27.125" W (100.3 cm x 68.9 cm); 42.75" L x 30.25" W (108.6 cm x 76.8 cm) framed
Born deaf, Broderson attended the Berkeley School for the Deaf in Berkeley, California. When he was 14 years old, his aunt Joan Ankrum, a gallery owner, recognized his artistic talent and introduced him to Francis DeErdeley, the Director of the Pasadena Art Institute. DeErdeley was impressed and agreed to mentor the young Broderson, eventually encouraging him to leave junior high school in order to attend the University of Southern California, Los Angeles where DeErdeley taught art. Broderson's honors included New Talent USA from "Art in America" and First Prize and Purchase at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. His work has been exhibited at the M.H. De Young Museum, San Francisco, and the University of Arizona, Tucson. His work has also been collected by the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York City, and the Hirshhorn Museum, Washington, D.C., among others.
