Description

Original Konrad Cramer Sgrafitto Circa 1935. Authentication by Aileen Cramer on verso. Konrad Cramer is often credited as being in important link between German and American modernism in art, and his experimentations with abstraction and expressionism during his first years in Woodstock would seem to bear this out. Konrad Cramer exhibited at the Whitney Studio Club in 1924, and taught at the Children’s University School (now the Dalton School), where he painted a mural in 1929. The 1930s were busy years in both Cramers’ professional lives. Konrad’s exhibitions included the Carnegie International (1929 and 1933), and a two-man show at the Dudensing Gallery (1930), where Cramer and Adolph Gottlieb had been selected the most deserving unknown American painters of the year. He was also included in the exhibit Abstract Painting in America at the Whitney Museum (1935).
