Stewart Davis - Owh! San Pao. - Offset Litho

Freshly framed Stuart Davis offset litho in an off-white frame matted behind glass. Ready to hang!


The quintessential painter of the modern urban scene, Stuart Davis found inspiration in billboards, signs, storefronts, and jazz rhythms. Translating developments in vanguard European art into an American vernacular, he also anticipated the pictorial concerns of Pop art, especially its appropriation of imagery from consumer culture. Owh! In San Paõ, a frenetic mix of everyday objects, words, and chromatic energy, was based on a painting of a coffee pot Davis made over twenty years earlier. In this later variation, he retained the original subject, reducing the coffee pot to a cylinder, and added the words “else,” “used to be,” and “now,” referring perhaps to the temporal gap between the two pictures.
