Description
The Vintage ( Circa.1982 ) Framed Original Mixed Media Painting ( Acrylic, Gouache, Pastel and Chalk ) on Board "Mime Trio" , Signed and Dated By Artist Noel Rockmore ( American, 1928-1995 ) in Lower Right. It Depicts Three Elongated Mime Forms Arranged within A Narrow Vertical Space, Their Pale, Mask Like Faces Animated By Vived Red Accents that Suggest Voice, Tension, and Suppressed Emotion. Incised Linear Marks Emerge through Layered Pigment, Creating A Sense of Nervous Energy and Emotional Immediacy. The Dramatic Red Orange Background Contrasts Powerfully with Deep Blues and Muted Earth Tones, Heightening the Intensity of the Figures' Silent Interaction. In the Stunning Painting "Mime Trio" , the Subtle Gestures and Converging Gazes Suggest An Unspoken Dialogue, Inviting the Viewer into A Moment of Introspection and Psychological Tension. The Composition Reflects the Artist's Deep Engagement with Expressionist Figuration and His Ability to Convey Complex Emotional States through Line, Color and Form. The Painting Shows Minimal Toning, and Some Wear on the Frame Consistent with Age, In Good Condition. About Artist: "Noel Rockmore (December 15, 1928 – February 19, 1995) was born Noel Montgomery Davis to his mother, Gladys Rockmore Davis, and his father, Floyd Davis, in New York City. Rockmore was an American painter, draughtsman, and sculptor. He produced more than 15,000 works of art in his lifetime. He is known for his portraits, his early rise to fame, his Preservation Hall portraits, and for changing his name at the height of the popularity he had developed in New York City. Noel painted in a realistic and old masters style throughout his childhood and adolescence. He experimented with different artistic theories, techniques, and ideas in the New York art world of the 1950s. Rockmore reached what for most artists would have been a career pinnacle when he was given a show at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York in 1952 at the young age of 24. A few years later, his paintings were shown at the Whitney Museum (1958), the Pennsylvania Academy in Philadelphia and the Cleveland Institute of Art. As the abstract expressionist movement gained momentum, Rockmore left New York and went to New Orleans, where he changed his name from Noel Davis to Noel Rockmore, adopting the surname of his mother. Once the Preservation Hall series was complete, Rockmore traveled back and forth between New York and New Orleans throughout the 1970s and 80s, creating many different series, including a Civil War series, an Ancient Egyptian series, and an Immigration series. In 1998, a retrospective was held at the New Orleans Museum of Art (NOMA), sponsored by Shirley Marvin, Preservation Hall, and NOMA. The show "Noel Rockmore: Fantasies and Realities" was presented by curator Gail Fiegenbaum and included a brochure and panel discussion with George Wein, Shirley Marvin and Rita Posselt. In November 2006, one year after Hurricane Katrina, Rich and Tee Marvin, Shirley's son and daughter-in-law, discovered over fourteen hundred (1,400) Rockmore works in Shirley Marvin's storage facility in New Orleans. They also found 35 years worth of correspondence, every Rockmore brochure and news article, as well as a documentary film all related to the life of Noel Rockmore. Museums such as the Hirshhorn Museum of Art, Museum of Modern Art, Metropolitan Museum of Art, New Orleans Museum of Art (NOMA) and Ogden Museum of Southern Art are graced with his brilliant works we know to be in existence. It is alleged that there are paintings we are still unaware of, which are located in homes and bars throughout New Orleans. His daughter, an affluent artist, had a recent opening in the New Orleans Jazz Museum last December 2019, titled, New Orleans Music Observed: The Art of Noel Rockmore and Emilie Rhys. New Orleans Music Observed: The Art of Noel Rockmore and Emilie Rhys promises to illuminate new insights into the work of these great artists, the venerated musicians who are their subjects, and even the mysterious nature of New Orleans music and New Orleans itself.
