About the Artist: Richard Lindner (American/German, 1901–1978) was an artist known for his bizarrely erotic portraits which meld human figures with machine-like elements. With their bold outlines and stretches of gradient color, Lindner’s figures are reminiscent of those by Fernand Léger. The artist’s 1954 painting Boy with Machine was famously used by the French authors Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari’s as the cover of their book Anti-Oedipus (1972). “An artist must remain a child, with an interest in unimportant things,” he once said. Born on November 11, 1901 in Hamburg, Germany, his family moved to the city of Nuremberg in 1905, where his mother ran a boutique corset shop. A talented musician as a youth, Lindner’s interest in visual art led him to attend the Kunstakademie in Munich, where he studied from 1925 until 1927. In 1929, he became the art director at Knorr & Hirth, a large publishing house, where he worked until 1933. Being of Jewish descent, Lindner fled to Paris to avoid arrest by the Nazi regime during the mid-1930s. In 1941, he moved to New York and worked as an illustrator for numerous publications, including Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, and Fortune. By 1952, Lindner had stopped his commercial assignments in order to devote his time completely to painting. The artist died on April 16, 1978 in New York, NY. Today, his works are held in the collections of The Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Tate Gallery in London, and the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum in Madrid, among others.

Richard Lindner
Richard Lindner (1901 – 1978) was a German-American painter. Lindner's mother was owner of a custom-fitting corset business and Richard Lindner grew up and studied at the Kunstgewerbeschule (Arts and Crafts School since 1940 Academy of Fine Arts). From 1924 to 1927 he lived in Munich and studied there from 1925 at the Kunstakademie. In 1927 Lindner moved to Berlin and stayed there until 1928, when he returned to Munich to become art director of a publishing firm. He remained in Munich until 1933, when he was forced to flee to Paris. Once in Paris, Lindner became politically engaged, sought contact with French artists and earned his living as a commercial artist. He was interned when World War II broke out in 1939 and later served in the French Army. In 1941, Lindner moved to the United States and worked in New York City as an illustrator of books and magazines. There he made contact with New York artists and German emigrants such as Albert Einstein, Marlene Dietrich, and Saul Steinberg. In 1948, Lindner became an American citizen. Lindner taught at a number of institutions including the Pratt Institute, Brooklyn, Hochschule fur bildende Kunste in Hamburg and Yale University School of Art and Architecture. His paintings often used the sexual symbolism of advertising and investigated definitions of gender roles in the media.

- "Porcupine Quill Jacket" Abstract Minimalist Portrait of a ManBy Lisa QuallsLocated in Houston, TXGraphite and watercolor drawing on mylar of a figure dressed in a quill jacket made by the Cameroon grass fields people in Africa by Florida artist Lisa Qualls. Titled “Porcupine Quill Jacket,” the work was created as part of a series titled “Strawmen and Sugarbones” made for the "RAW" exhibition at O'Kane Gallery in 2009. In her artist statement for this series Qualls states: “I have isolated pieces of costumes and placed them on a person who is naked in order to emphasize the relationship between the object and person, the materials and skin, the symbol and the living being. The garments and ritual objects relate to the body in specific ways and are used to explore gender roles, societal and cultural ideas, aesthetics and spirituality. The voyeuristic element of the audience to the subjects in the drawings further emphasizes the vulnerability of the figures and their introspective and intimate poses. The figures, part soft and vulnerable, part concealed and protected, live in these ambiguous spaces as they would in a vision.” Dimensions Without Frame: H 36 in. x W 24 in. Artist Biography: Lisa received her BFA and BA from the University of Texas at Austin. She continued her studies in Fine Art and Design at Parsons and FIT in New York, NY and CISIM in Ravenna, Italy. Her work is currently represented by Ann Connelly...Category
