Provenance:
Jacob Baal-Teshuva Estate
Featured in the 2022 Edition of ArtNews Top 200 Collectors, Jacob Baal-Teshuva was recognized as one of the most distinguished international editors and appraisers of modern and contemporary art. Born in Jerusalem in 1929, Baal-Teshuva studied at the Hebrew University there and then, after emigrating to the U.S, continued his studies at New York University while writing as a freelance journalist at the United Nations. As author, curator, scholar, appraiser and collector, fluent in five languages, Baal-Teshuva was engaged in the highest echelon of art collectors and museums across five continents. He forged personal relationships with most of the major artists of the last century, amassing a collection of hundreds of works of art. Baal-Teshuva authored books on Rothko, Christo and Jean Claude, Calder, Warhol, Tiffany, and numerous volumes on Marc Chagall. Sadly, Jacob Baal-Teshuva passed away in early 2022.
Andre Lanskoy was a Russian painter and printmaker who worked in France. He is associated with the School of Paris and an abstract painting movement known as Tachisme that began in the 1940s. Lanskoy was born in Moscow on March 31, 1902. His family moved to St. Petersburg in 1905 and then to Kiev in 1918. He fought in the Tsarist White Army during the Russian Civil War until he was injured. In 1921, Lanskoy moved to Paris where he studied painting at the Academie de La Grande. Recalling his arrival in the French capital, Lanskoy said: "Literally in the first night I started to paint and I haven’t stopped since." In Paris, he met Serge Poliakoff, Jean-Michel Coulon and later Nicolas de Staël.
Lanskoys' success began when Wilhelm Unde took interest of his works at the Salon d' Automne in 1923-1924. In 1925, he held his first solo exhibition in Paris followed by a group exhibition with fellow Russian artist Robert and Sonia Delaunay, Leopold Survage, and Ossip Zadkine. Those early works were inspired by Van Gogh, Matisse and Soutine.
By 1937 Lanskoy had given up figurative painting and began fully painting abstracts. During this time he became friends with Nicolas de Stael and the two held an exhibition in 1948. He subsequently exhibited at the New York Fine Arts Associates, documenta II and the Les Peintres Russes de l'Ecole de Paris at the museum of Saint Denis. The Tooth and Sons Gallery showed his work in 1953 and The Loeb Gallery in New York City followed in 1959. In 1966 he had an exhibition at the Museé Galliéra, Paris. The Neue Galerie in Zürich held an exhibition in 1969. Lanskoy died on 24 August 1976 in Paris.
