Los Angeles Printmaking of the 1970s
LAURENCE DREIBAND. Serigraph on off-white wove paper, 10 5/8" x 23 7/8" (270 x 606mm.)(image), 12 1/2" x 26" (318 x 663mm.)(sheet), signed lower right, numbered ("21/25") lower left, all in pencil. Sheet slightly wavy, otherwise in fine condition. No date (probably, 1970s). Unframed. Apparently, derived from a photograph: closely-herded sheep, the screened dot pattern that is visible throughout the composition corresponding to the graininess achieved upon enlarging a photograph to the point that it breaks apart into a quantity of individual dots. As the eye moves from the animals in the fore-ground to those in the mid-ground and then to the still more distant forms in the background, the color changes from blue to violet, and from violet to orange. Laurence Dreiband (born New York, NY 1944). Education: Chouinard Art Institute, Los Angeles (1961); Art Center College of Design, Pasadena (1967; MFA, 1968). Exhibitions: Crocker Art Gallery, Sacramento ("West Coast 70," 1970); Fine Arts Gallery, San Diego (1970); David Stuart Galleries, Los Angeles (1970, 1971, 1972); Long Beach Museum of Art ("California Artists," 1971); University of California, Santa Barbara ("L.A.: 14 Painters," 1972). Commissions: Container Corp. of America ("Great Ideas of Western Man," 1970). Professional: instructor of painting and photography, Art Center College of Design, Pasadena (from 1970); instructor of painting, California State College, Los Angeles (1971). Bibliography: Joseph Young, "Los Angeles Artist Laurence Dreiband" ("Art International," 1970); Udo Kulterman, "New Realism" (1972).
