The Dead Artists Gallery

The Dead Artists Gallery Fine Art for Decoration Welcome to our Gallery. Because some of our art is decorative for art’s sake, not all of our artists have been identified.

The Dead Artists Gallery was created to provide Interior Designers and Architects affordable fine art as decoration for local as well as international client projects. We are proud to offer one of the largest selections of mid-eighteenth through mid-twentieth century art in the Southeast. These are singular, one-off pieces since most of the artists are no longer painting (though all may not be dea

d!). Sizes, color palates and appropriate period framing have all been taken into consideration; the art ranges from whimsical to serious. Some have been described by our “pickers” without our authentication, but given out of interest. Please call for additional information. For the trade, frame sizes are the dimensions given; canvas size furnished on request. Shipping available to continental United States; pricing includes packing, shipping and insurance.

To pleasant oil own hardboard by the Bucks County, expressionist, Marilyn H Dwyer(1938-2001) done in the style of two other well known Pennsylvania artists… Andrew and Jamie Wyeth. Graduating from the Moore College of art in Philadelphia, Dwyer proceeded to teach art.The Wyndroft School , where she became a member of the National Penn Women’s Association. Using a calming pallet of grey and white with accents of celery and sepia, her paintings are right at home with today’s designer pallet requirements. The landscape, 12 x 15, and the terrace bench,15 x18, are both housed in original coordinated frames and are $385 and $425.

Mid-century mountain top Fortress… Somewhere in Italy or in this Italian artists eye. Armaldo Sarli (1904-?), American - Italian Expressionist from New York City who painted in his unique almost Brutalist style. Some of his works, such as the remote village pictured here and perched on mounds of Surreal boulders lent themselves to the severe Realism of his works . Coupled with a metronome- like persistence, he achieved a calmness through repetition. Oil on masonite in original stained wood frame c. 1950 22 x 28, $675.

Kitchen countertop jewel. Possibly the best luminist painting we have owned. American landscape painting style of the 1850s to 1870s, it is characterized by effect of light in a landscape through the use of aerial perspective and concealment of visible brush strokes. It was unique to the works of a group of independent American painters, directly influence by the Hudson river school of painting. Distinguished by a smooth, slick, finish with cold, clear colors, and meticulously detailed objects modeled by rays of light with the sky, usually occupying 1/2 of the composition. This particular painting is somewhat unique in that it includes a working farm with a hay wagon atop which sit two young lads, pulled by a pair of horses. The wagon is followed by two additional workers; they have just passed a farmhouse in the midfield, and a church in the midfield is visible through the afternoon glow. The wagon approaches a bridge to the left of which two cows rest in a riverside pasture. A great deal in a small painting! 18 x 24 in original oil-gilt frame circa 1870, $1250. Now, it’s up to you, dear viewer, to help us decide whether to restore the frame or not. Some designers like them in their “ as found” condition, and some like them restored to earlier perfection. Which should it be?

When is a Beaver(Herman A., 2008-2010) not a Beaver? When it is a Kratz! (Phillips G., 1901-1959.). Chicago plain aire artist who painted with a pallet knife remarkably like his Pennsylvania contemporary. We have chosen the description of “Pallet -knife Fauvism.”
