About the Item

Kamol Tassananchalee Retrospective exhibition poster The National Gallery, Thailand (Hand signed), 1990 Offset lithograph poster Hand signed and dated by Kamol Tassananchalee in blue crayon on the front 28 × 23 inches Unframed The poster was published in an unknown edition, but it is uniquely signed and dated by the artist in blue crayon. This was published on the occasion of the The National Gallery, Bangkok, Thailand exhibition "Kamol Tassananchalee A RETROSPECTIVE EXHIBITION, 1970-1990, 20 YEARS OF ART IN THE UNITED STATES" from November 8 - December 2, 1990. About Kamol Tassananchalee: Kamol Tassananchalee is an artist from Thailand who traveled as an art student to Southern California, where he established in the 1970s. Since then, he has journeyed back and forth between Thailand and the Southern California and beyond as an artist, teacher and a Buddhist. In 1997, he was granted the title of National Artist of Thailand, a title which would have made his grandfather – court artist to King Rama IV (r.1851-1868) – very proud. The title means that outside Thailand, Tassananchalee serves as a sort of cultural ambassador, sharing the Thai artistic spirit overseas, while at home encouraging fellow Thai artists and his students to draw inspiration from both their own roots and overseas. Over nearly five decades as an artist, Kamol Tassananchalee has been first and foremost a global artist, masterfully introducing elements of his cultural and spiritual heritage into his abstract paintings, from Buddhist symbolism to Thai kite flying. Many of his early paintings, including a series depicting the footprints of the Buddha made direct references to the Buddha. Before there were iconic representations of the Buddha, his teachings and spiritual power were symbolized by a wheel, a lotus, or his footprints. Tassananchalee’s representations of his footprints in his abstract paintings were likely more than simply honoring his own Buddhist heritage but also illustrating the fact that the Buddha’s teachings have extended well beyond his native Asia. In recent years, however, his paintings have been more obscure in their references to Asian philosophy and largely transcend culture, religion and location. Primarily abstract paintings but also monoprints, his two-dimensional works occasionally contain creatures, photographic self-portraits and artists’ tools. In an exhibition at LA Artcore’s Brewery Annex in honor of his 70th birthday, a collection of the most recent works of Kamol Tassananchalee illustrates the artist’s broad artistic and cultural range. In two series of large paintings, “The Four Elements” and “The Universe”, the artist is at his most spiritual, drawing from Asian cosmology and also from his own dream world.

Anderson Collection (label) Walasse Ting (Chinese: 丁雄泉, 13 October 1929 – May 17, 2010)[1] was a Chinese-American visual artist and poet. His colorful paintings have attracted critical admiration and a popular following. Common subjects include nude women and cats, birds and other animals. He was born on 13 October 1929 in Shanghai, left China in 1946 and lived for a while in Hong Kong, then settled in Paris in 1952.[2] There, he associated with artists such as Karel Appel, Asger Jorn, and Pierre Alechinsky, members of the avant-garde group CoBrA. Ting started his career as an artist in Paris in the 1950s, where he became friends with artists such as Sam Francis and Pierre Alechinsky. His early works were influenced by the CoBrA group, a European art movement known for its use of expressive, childlike imagery. In the 1960s, Ting moved to New York City and became associated with the Pop Art movement. Ting is perhaps best known for his series of paintings featuring women, which he called "Cat Women...
