Howard Baer (American, 1906-1986) Painting. Title - Abstract Composition. Oil on canvas painting. Signed lower left H. Baer '51. Painting measures 11.5 inches high, 6.5 inches wide. Frame measures 13.25 inches high, 8 inches wide. In good condition.
The following was submitted by Rick Wells, February 2004 and is a direct quote of comments from a label on the back of one of Baer's signed original lithographs from Associated American Artists, 711 Fifth Avenue, New York 22, N.Y. 1945 - 1947 - Howard Baer was born in a little mining town below Pittsburgh in 1907. He received his art education at the Carnegie Institute in Pittsburgh. Journeying to New York in 1929, he has lived there continuously excepting during those periods devoted to traveling in Southern France and Mexico. Baer has achieved widespread attention for his drawings, illustrations, and cartoons. He found his first opportunity to devote his time to easel painting in 1941 when he journeyed to the interior of a mountain village in Mexico called Chapala. He spent several months in the village, and a series of paintings and a large mural of the town which resulted from this stay and which made up a noteworthy exhibition in our Galleries here. Critics' praise of his talent was unanimous. During the past two years he has climbed steadily up the ladder. In the war, he was selected to record for the Navy a series of drawings and paintings of WAVES in aviation, and later he went overseas as an artist correspondent to record actual battle warfare in the China-Burma India Theater of Operations. The artist's paintings and drawings hang in many important collections.
