Beverly Pepper (American, 1922-2020). Ink painting titled "Jerusalem" depicting two figures in loose brushstrokes, 1957. Signed, titled, and dated along the lower right. With an additional painting in ink along the verso. This is an early example of her art before she moved to working primarily with sculptures.
While studying art theory with Gyorgy Kepes, she was introduced to the works of Laszlo Moholy-Nagy and Man Ray and met environmental artist Frederick Kiesler. In post-war Europe in 1949 while studying painting in Paris at the Academie de la Grande Chaumiere she attended classes with cubist painter Andre Lhote and Fernand Leger at his atelier while visiting the studios of Ossip Zadkine and Brancusi.
She worked as a painter but took up sculpture after a 1960 trip to Angkor Wat, Cambodia, where the temple ruins filled her with awe. Throughout her life she experimented with new and emerging sculptural techniques, becoming one of, if not the first sculptors to use Cor-Ten steel in her works.
Height: 28 in x width: 20 in.
