Tony Minartz |
 |
The Intermission |
 |
An engraver and self-taught painter who was influenced by Toulouse-Lautrec, Tony Minartz was a member of the Societe Nationale des Beaux Arts from 1901 and exhibited there over the course of two decades. He specialized in scenes of Parisian night life, music halls and cafes, such as this work ca. 1905. Benizet says: "he was best known for his interpretations of Parisian daily life, the festivals, the casino, the cafe-concert, the circus, the music-hall, the Opera and the ballets, of which he remains one of the truest chroniclers." Minartz’ works are found in the Hermitage Museum (from the collection of M.K. Morozova), among others. |

Richard Maury |
|
Table Top Still Life with Fish |
|
RICHARD MAURY (American, 1935 - )
From his perch in Florence, Italy, where he moved as a young man in 1960, American-born Richard Maury has pursued an artistry drenched in traditional painting techniques that has made him something of a solitary – and quietly heroic – figure. As Americans at mid-century exalted art works that prized newness and innovation, Maury has produced an astounding body of work – still lifes, interiors, nudes, portraits – that confounds those who call realist painting passé. He has not been overlooked; Thomas Hoving named Maury as one of a handful of 20th century artists whom he thought connoisseurs a 100 years hence will pronounce American masters.

Frank Anthony Smith |
|
Bad Lumber |
|
Frank Anthony Smith (American, 1939 - )
A Utah native, Smith taught at the University of Utah from 1966 to 2001 as a member of the painting and drawing faculty. A retrospective of his work "Inner Realities, Outer Illusions" was held at the Utah Museum of Fine Art in 2005. This work puts contemporary realism though the paces - of surrealism, illusionism, trompe l'oeil, and who knows quite what else -- in a spirited and painterly fashion. Bad lumber. Good painting.
