“Un Coque en Plume,” John Ferren, 1933. What better approbation could a young American Artist in Paris in the 30s want than that of Gertrude Stein? Here is what she had to say about the young Ferren: “He is the only American painter foreign painters in Paris consider as a painter and whose paintings interest them...” During his time in Paris, Ferren befriended just about everyone there was to know, including Picasso (whom he helped with the preliminary sketches for Guernica) and Matisse, Miro, Mondrian, Miro And Hoffman. He exhibited with Kandinsky and Giacometti, absorbing elements of cubism, fauvism, abstraction and surrealism. He also participated in Hayter’s Atelier 17 experimental paint studio. Upon his return to the uS, he was included in the seminal 9th Street Show which introduced the New York School to the world. His work is in the Whitney (seven works), MOMA, Guggenheim and others. We are delight led to offer this rare example from his Paris years.
