[LiveAuctioneers.com]( [View Auction]( New Orleans Auction Galleries is pleased to offer a curated selection of items as wide-ranging as an innovative silkscreen by Christopher Wool, the powerful documentary photographs of Gordon Parks, works by Southern Regional artists Ida Kohlmeyer and George Dunbar, the iconic jazz images of Jean-Pierre Leloir and William Gottlieb, the vibrant and colorful abstract works on paper by some of the most significant Spanish artists of the 20th century, eclectic lighting and iconic mid-century furniture. [Christopher Wool (American, b. 1955), “Woman III”, 2005]( Offering both abstract fluency and access to the mechanics of expression, “Woman III” (2005) exemplifies why Wool's work resists codification so deftly. Experimenting with silkscreen, the method afforded him more control over the mechanical process of creation, while still allowing for naturally occurring flaws that had become recognizable within his oeuvre. The dense layers applied via silkscreen created new forms and configurations, and Wool's work with abstraction expanded beyond that of his black-and-white paintings through the implication of natural forces in conjunction with the mechanics of expression. [BID ON THIS ITEM]( [Gordon Parks (American, 1912-2006), “Nudes”]( The twelve stunning — and rare — unframed nudes offered here reveal Gordon Parks' continuous exploration of perspective, lighting, and form, with each photograph serving as a sophisticated experiment of composition and technique. They were a part of a larger group of images – 15 nudes and 35 abstracts – intended for a traveling museum exhibition entitled “Images from the Soul”. A large coffee table book was also in the works before Parks' untimely and sudden death halted the project. [BID ON THIS ITEM]( [Monumental Dale Chihuly Winter Yellow Macchia with Ice Blue Lip]( Chihuly has been creating his vibrantly hued and striated vessels for over 50 years and the vessel offered here is an exceptional example of his Macchia (Italian for stain or spot) series. When viewed under direct light, the glass appears molten, with a stunning luminosity suggestive of movement. The result is a vibrantly hued vessel with swirls, striations, and dots of intense color.
