ABSTRACT MIXED MEDIA PAINTING BY MICHAEL GOLDBERG
Michael Goldberg, American, 1924 to 2008, Abstract Expressionist oil and colored chalk on heavy paper painting Spannocchia 1, 1989. Signed in pencil lower right: Goldberg; titled, dated, and numbered in pencil lower left. Matted and framed. Provenance: Karl and Faber Kunstauktionen, Munich, Germany 2019, Private Collection, CA. Note: Michael Goldberg, a second generation Abstract Expressionist painter, was born in 1924 in New York City, where his studies at the Art Students League, 1938-1942, were interrupted by World War II. After hazardous duty as a paratrooper in North Africa and Burma, he returned to New York, studying with Jose de Creeft and Hans Hofmann. With Hofmann as a teacher, Goldbergs artistic destiny was determined. His work was influenced by Hofmann, with whom he studied for two years, and by Matta and Arshile Gorky. But it was Willem de Kooning, and his use of fiery brushwork and explosive color, who would prove to be Goldbergs greatest influence. One of a kind artwork.
