Initially best known for her Fauvist and Cubist paintings, Marguerite was soon recognized for having elevated embroidery into a fine art. She further developed her personal style by adding new elements to Fauvism and Cubism, expanding her range of subjects and expression. For a time her reputation was eclipsed by that of her husband, typical of the then dismissive attitudes toward female artists, but she is now highly regarded and sought after. Her work can be found in the permanent collections of both preeminent and smaller museums across the United States. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f467b0db2f7207e058e3e02/t/5f9b2b8fbc7898053f3ebf9d/1607902070119/two-children-William-Zorach.jpg The Zorachs – Early American Modernists - William Zorach William “Bill” Zorach is a classic American success story. He emigrated from Lithuania to the United States as a young child and studied art in New York, and then Paris in the early 1900s. He was regarded as a founder of the early American modernist movement, first as a painter painting in a Fauvist and later a Cubist style. Whatever his success as an oil painter, Bill found that he was more drawn to sculpting and to painting with watercolors. He taught himself to sculpt, not only modeling works but also developing the kind of sculpture style known as direct carving. William was among the best known and respected sculptors of his generation and was beloved as a teacher as well. His watercolors, too, are greatly admired. His work can be found in public installations and in the permanent collections of both preeminent and smaller museums throughout the country. https://www.zorachart.com/contact daily 0.75 2021-10-22
