NOTES:
As women shaped Blackman life: Blackman is at ease painting feminine subject's; his famous works of Zelda Fitzgerald, Schoolgirls series and Alice series. Joy Hester, said "The hand and the eye of the painter is what love is to a poet" thus Blackman's art has the infinite power and universal appeal, he is loved by all. "When I was young I thought there was a dream in the in between of finding and knowing, but the dream was eternity of torment of unknowing" says Blackman.

NOTES:
Charles Blackman understood the vital issues of love and family.
Blackman ‘Family House with the Red Roof’ circa 1972-73 offers comfort, warmth, privacy and reassurance as well as family peace.

The strong contrast and the bite of black, the green leafed trees, a touch of blue and the red-roofed house with
garden surrounding beckons calm family existence, the permanence and sense of belonging.

During an interview Blackman say " When I was young I thought there was a dream in the in between of finding and knowing, but the dream was family and eternity of torment of unknowing"

Alice Tea Party 1962 NOTES: Share Charles Blackman art on your facebook    Share your enjoyment in art   Email

'Alice Tea Party' is also know as 'Figure by the Window' from the Artist collection, the painting is accompanied by Sotheby's Certificate signed by Blackman.

The painting is one of only few that come back from London from the period of Charles Blackman international acclaim. In 1961 Charles Blackman won the prestigious Helena Rubenstein Art Award attracting the international recognition. Blackman is at ease with feminine subjects that he eloquently reveals in his famous Alice series and Schoolgirls series.

Alice Tea Party (painted 1962 in London) is an outstanding work of art and arguably, one of the greatest masterworks of the artist. Alice Tea Party is a very beautiful and inspiring painting in a dramatic juxtaposition of colour conveying the sense of vulnerability that underpins much of Blackman work. Blackman pays particular attention to the details with the subtle shades and intricate precision he is achieving a powerful and a poignant painting with the sheer physical presence of much contemporary work.

The painting is in pristine condition housed in a double gold leaf frame with white board and glass.

The Crack Up NOTES:  Share Charles Blackman art on your facebook    Share your enjoyment in art   Email

The Crack Up 1973,
an important museum quality painting from the period of Blackman international acclaim following his victory at the Helena Rubenstein Art Award in London (1961) that started Blackman international recognition.

Only one of only few Australian paintings relating to Pop-Art, an important international art movement. Crack-Up portrays a famous American writer Scott Fitzgerald and his wife Zelda. The black outline around two figures (Scott Fitzgerald and his wife Zelda) epitomizes a rare Australian tie to the global movement Pop-Art.Scott Fitzgerald regarded as one of the twentieth century's greatest writers and his wife Zelda were good friends with the Blackman’s.  Charles Blackman depicts Zelda in warm and happy tones yet, as she is peeled from the mind of her husband, almost as she was Fitzgerald own creation. Blackman portrays the troubled writer Scott Fitzgerald in dark chilly shades.

Crack-Up is a superb painting and indeed a brilliant work of art. It is a razor sharp, but tender, exciting and emotionally moving painting opening feelings of the tormented writer, his passions and suffering. Australian artists, far from the rest of the world, seldom embodied a new significant international movements except for some internationally renowned Australian artists. Charles Blackman lived in London in the centre of international art 1961 to 1966 and was able to recognize and embrace the important worldwide art progress of Andy Warhol style identified as Pop-Art.

Women shaped Charles Blackman life and he is at ease painting feminine subject's; famous Schoolgirls series, Alice series and works of Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald. The most famous Schoolgirls series conveys the sense of vulnerability that underpins much of Blackman work.  Blackman friend, Joy Hester, said "The hand and the eye of the painter is what love is to a poet" and so Blackman's art has the infinite power and universal appeal, he is loved by all.
