Gerry Biron Native American mixed media "Allies" with a signed lithograph, a pencil drawn feather, and a real feather to bottom; labeled to back with title, artist info, and quote from artist about his inspiration for the work; signed and dated inside of work "Biron 11/15/81" as well as signed to lower right outside of image "Biron 5/9/85" and signed under feather "Biron 3/26/88"; titled to bottom middle and numbered to bottom left "AP 77/100"; measures approximately 39" x 25-5/8" with sight image of approximately 21-3/4" x 15-1/2"; in Good condition. Gerry Biron’s career as a fine artist spans almost five decades and during that time, he’s exhibited his work in hundreds of shows nationwide and won numerous “First Place” and “Best of Show” awards for his portraits of Native people. His interest in the Indians of the Northeast stems in part from his ancestry. His matrilineal grandmother, Clarissa Basque, was a Mi’kmaq from Nova Scotia. Though she died before he was born, her influence on his life has been profound, and it continues to shape and direct the nature of his work.
Shipping is the responsibility of the purchaser. Upon request, our staff will provide the list of shippers who deliver to destinations within the United States and overseas. Some property that is sold at auction can be subject to laws governing export from the U.S., such as items that include material from some endangered species. Import restrictions from foreign countries are subject to these same governing laws. Granting of licensing for import or export of goods from local authorities is the sole responsibility of the buyer. Denial or delay of licensing will not constitute cancellation or delay in payment for the total purchase price of these lots.
