JAMES MORRISON MCCLERY (SCOTTISH 1924 - 1969), FOUR MIXED MEDIA PICTURES including three watercolours and a mixed media, each depicting landscapes each mounted, framed and under glassthe largest 39cm x 47cmQty: 4Note: James Morrison McChlery, known as ‘Morris’, was born in 1924 in the west end of Glasgow. He was educated at Hillhead High School and Glasgow Academy. During the war, he began to paint seriously and trained himself in watercolours and oils. He was inspired by a wide range of painters, including the Impressionists, abstract artists such as Miro and Klee, and the Scottish Colourists. After the war he established links with other artists in and around Glasgow, including Alan Fletcher, Bet Low, Margaret Oliver Brown, Pierre Lavale, and others. In particular, he became a good friend and protégée of the colourist J. D. Fergusson, who returned to Scotland after the war with his wife Margaret Morris intending to support the development of the arts in Scotland. Fergusson was the active patron of the ‘New Scottish Group’ of young artists, and Morris was the secretary for several years, organising exhibitions and sales with other artists. They were the first people to hang pictures for sale on the railings of the Botanic Gardens in Glasgow, which was remembered for years and which is still revived from time to time He sketched and painted constantly, abroad and in Scotland. To make a living he joined the family firm of James, Morrison, McChlery & Co, auctioneers and valuers, who traded from the Crown Halls in Sauchiehall Street. During his work there he developed his knowledge and expertise, and reputation, in art and objects d’art, in which prosperous Glasgow families were well endowed.Before his untimely death in a car accident in 1969, Morris, produced a huge body of work of great variety: studies of industrial post-war Glasgow, glowing Scottish landscapes, vibrant impressionistic still lifes, and diverse abstracts.

PICASSO PABLO: (1881-1973) Spanish painter, a co-founder of the Cubist movement. A.L.S., Picasso, one page, 4to, Vallauris (Cote d´Azur), 3rd May 1950, to Max [Pellequer] (´Mon cher Max´), in French. Picasso writes, in part, ´Voici le cheque et voici la lettre. Mais je trouve que le chiffre a bien augmente´ (Translation: ´Here's the cheque and here's the letter. But I think the figure has gone up quite a bit´) and concludes by wishing Pellequer a pleasant stay at [Chateau de?] Poulesse and one other place. Some very light, minor creasing and age wear, VGMax Pellequer - French banker and art collector who would become Picasso´s private banker, financial adviser and close friend. Pellequer assembled an important collection of artworks in the 1920s and 1930s which included a number of significant early pieces by Picasso, as well as works by Paul Cezanne, Edgar Degas, Paul Gauguin, Henri Matisse, Joan Miro and others. Almost two hundred letters from Pellequer to Picasso are preserved in the Musee National Picasso in Paris.Picasso had come to live in Vallauris in 1948 and stayed in the seaside commune until 1955. During this time he created a great number of sculptures and paintings, including his mural War and Peace, and also developed a fascination for the techniques of ceramics and linocuts.

Stephen Willats, British b.1943 - Coree Design, 1965; gouache and pencil on paper, signed and dated lower right 'Willats 1965' and titled upper right, 56 x 76 cm (ARR) Provenance: with Gimpel Fils, London, no.3500 (according to the label attached to the reverse of the frame) Note: Stephen Willats is a seminal figure in British conceptual art. His work focuses on the intersection of art, sociology, and science. Through a diverse range of media including sculpture, photography, installation, furniture and clothing, Willats investigates how societal structures influence individual behavior, often inviting audience participation to blur the boundaries between observer and observed. Through these interdisciplinary approaches and community collaboration, Willats continues to challenge perceptions of art's role in shaping our understanding of the world. In 1965 Willats founded the magazine 'Control', encouraging discussions surrounding artist practices. The magazine has documented the works and ideas of many artists including Helen Chadwick, Tony Cragg and Anish Kapoor. The magazine is still in publication today. Earlier this year Victoria Miro exhibited ‘Stephen Willats: Time Tumbler’ which brought important works from the 1970s together with more recent works, celebrating Willats' eightieth birthday and his long-standing relationship with the gallery. His works are held in the collections of the Tate, the National Portrait Gallery, and the Henry Moore Institute.

Min WARDMAN (1951-2024) Fish Sellers Mixed media on paper, studio stamp verso, 70cm x 50cm, 98cm x 67.5cm framed.Min Wardman (1951-2024) Artist - Feminist - Gardener Min was born in Yorkshire in 1951, her mother an artist, father a civil engineer. After a comprehensive education she was awarded an opportunity to study art in Birmingham, followed by postgraduate studies in both History of Art and Painting in London. After graduating, Min found the London party scene not to her taste, finding it too difficult to be taken seriously as a female painter. At the time, Devon was developing a Community College and it is here that Min worked, developing Textile and Print-making courses across Bideford College, promoting modern ideas of Art and Art Education. After being promoted to Head of Department, teaching painting, ceramics, textiles and design, Min realised she wasn't having enough time to create her own work, so went part-time. Min studied art all her life and motifs were often found within her work. Landscape is a near constant: there are stone monuments, myths and legends, birds and plants and others which pass in and out of her work. Favourite artists included Miro for block colour, Manrique for art and community planning and Picasso for returning to images and perseverence and female artists, such as Barbara Hepworth, Rose Hilton, Wilhelmina Barns-Graham, Frida Kahlo and Tracey Emin were admired for their ability to keep working despite the patriarchy. Min was very private about her art, never exhibiting, rarely signing her work, allowing people into her studio or even talking about it. For her, art was her expressing her thoughts and not for the public to analyse or judge. On the wall of her studio were two unattributed quotes: 'Painting down to the bones of the matter', and 'Make slow paintings with mystery'. When Min died in 2024, she requested no announcement, funeral or obituary, - 'throw my body out in the orchard for the dogs...'

PITCAIRN ISLAND - an oval red miro wood basket, with handle, shaped rim and the turned outer body with letter punched floral decoration and punched 'Pitcairn Island' and maker's name 'John Christian', 22.5cm x 18.5cm. Similar example see Christie's 'Exploration & Travel Including The Bligh Relics' sale, 26th September 2002, Lot no. 70. Notes: a basket made by 1 of the Bounty mutineer Fletcher Christian's descendants on Pitcairn Island. This first recorded John Christian was Fletcher Christian's Great-Grandson, born on Pitcairn in 1843, possibly maker of the present basket, although the woodworking tradition and manufacture of souvenirs to sell to passing ships continues on the island to this day. The outer body of the present basket is turned in red miro, which grew on Pitcairn and on neighbouring Henderson Island, where the islanders sailed to replenish stocks of timber. The upright surround has 1 vertical split but this does appear to be a natural flaw in the design and has a small piece of metal connecting both ends of split, otherwise only general surface wear and a few small water stain patches

Joan Miro (Spanish (Catalan), 1893-1983). Aquatint and etching on Guarro paper depicting an abstract composition in bright colors, plate 5 from the "Espriu" Suite, 1974. Pencil signed along the lower right; numbered 20/50 along the lower left.Provenance: Private Connecticut Collection, 1991; Private Minnesota Collection.Lot Essay:Joan Miro's early works were influenced by Catalan folk art and Fauvism, but it was his encounter with Surrealism in Paris during the 1920s that profoundly shaped his artistic vision. Embracing the Surrealist ethos of unlocking the subconscious mind, Miro developed a unique visual language characterized by biomorphic forms, dreamlike symbols, and vibrant colors. His paintings, such as "The Farm" (1921-1922) and "The Tilled Field" (1923-1924), evoke a sense of poetic spontaneity and primal energy.Throughout his career, Miro continued to innovate, exploring various mediums including painting, sculpture, ceramics, and printmaking. His experimentation with automatic drawing and spontaneous mark-making liberated his artistic process, allowing for a fluid and intuitive approach to creation. Miro's iconic works, such as "The Harlequin's Carnival" (1924-1925) and "The Birth of the World" (1925), exemplify his playful yet profound exploration of form and color.In addition to his artistic achievements, Miro was a committed advocate for social and political causes, particularly during the tumultuous period of the Spanish Civil War and World War II. His art often served as a vehicle for political commentary, expressing solidarity with the oppressed and advocating for peace and freedom. Miro's enduring legacy as a pioneer of Surrealism and a champion of artistic experimentation continues to inspire generations of artists, as his boundless imagination and creative spirit remain as relevant today as ever before. Through his daring exploration of the subconscious and his fearless embrace of spontaneity, Miro transcended artistic conventions, leaving an indelible mark on the trajectory of modern art.Sight; height: 33 3/4 in x width: 27 1/2 in.
