Description:
Used; Like New/Used; Like New. Original artwork certificate for the great violinist written in intentionally unintelligible script and dated 'Febr. 2 1947', the only decipherable other text being the name "Alexander Schneider" and the artist's signature "Steinberg." Ink, colored pencil, watercolor and postage stamp on paper. 10 x 13 inches (25.4 x 32.7 cm.). From the collection of the eminent Lithuanian-American violinist and conductor Alexander Schneider, best known as second violinist of the Budapest String Quartet from 1932 to 1944 and from 1955 to 1967.An extraordinary example of the artist's celebrated abstract handwriting style. "In the mid-1940s, he had begun to evolve an elegant, but purposely unreadable, calligraphy with which he manufactured false documents—fake certificates, diplomas, passports, and licenses—whose illegibility deprives officialdom of its self-proclaimed authority . By the 1950s, the "handwriting" had matured into such eye-fooling illusiveness that viewers…

In fine condition. 29.5 x 6 x 3.25 inches (75 x 15 x 8 cm.).French-Venezuelan sculptor Marisol Escobar – known simply as Marisol - is best known for her elegant, eclectic, and poignant yet edgy figurative sculptures. Her output encompasses woodcarving and sculptural assemblages, cast metal pieces, ceramics, and works on paper. Her work was included in the Museum of Modern Art's 1961 "The Art of Assemblage" and she was commissioned to create three covers for TIME magazine.

Often grouped with pop art artists (and noted for her influence on her close friend Andy Warhol, who described her as "the first girl artist with glamor"), her work does not lend itself to neat categorization. Strains of pre-Columbian folk art and religious symbolism infuse her pieces,…
