About the Item

Initialed lower right, 'R.S.' for Robert Schlegel (American, 1947-2021), additionally signed, verso, titled, 'Standing Horse' and dated 2014. A substantial and dramatic Expressionist study of a standing horse rendered in shades of charcoal and contrasted against a vibrant, scumbled background of olive and sunset coral. Robert Schlegel first studied at Willamette University and, subsequently, at Portland State University before embarking on a lifetime commitment to drawing, painting and sculpture. Over the course of a long and successful career, he exhibited nationwide at both solo and group exhibitions including in California, Montana, Oregon and Washington and Texas. Schlegel has been the recipient of numerous prizes, medals and juried awards and his work may be found in prominent private and public collections including the permanent collections of the Portland Art Museum, Stanford University's Green Library; the University of Delaware, Special Collections; Brown University's John Hay Library and Yale's Beinecke Library, among others. Artist Statement: "In my work, I attempt to present my interpretation of the objects and forms found in the environment. Of particular interest to me are man-made structures juxtaposed into this landscape. The interaction of shape, contrast and line are what intrigue me and I attempt to transform these images into the compositions of my paintings. As I make art, I strive to create work that possesses tension between the representational and the abstract."
