Author: Lane, Christopher (b. 1937)
Title: A Collection of Annotated Photographs and Documentation by and About the Artist Christopher Lane
Description: San Francisco: 1982-1997. 6 TLs to the art historian Peter Selz with a group annotated photographs and slides; price lists; press releases; biographies; flyers and catalogues from shows, including one with Hiromichi Iwashita; drawing of a layout for a show; and other documentation. Christopher Lane was unique member of a group of modernist painters who completely altered the idea and process of what a painting becomes. They addressed a painting as an extension of the human condition through an unconscious process that becomes not an ideology but an empirical representation of life itself. The paintings of Lane and his contemporaries, reveal the artist to be a harbinger of spirit and what philosopher Gilles Deleuze defined as transcendental empiricism. His career continued to elevate and his work was exhibited in the United States and internationally. He devoted many long hours and years in his studio working on monumental works such as an eighteen-foot triptych (from 1977-79), which earned him a solo exhibition at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMoMA) in 1982. Prominent collectors purchased Lane’s work and he was making a nice life for himself through his painting. His work was reviewed and discussed by the influential American art historian Peter Selz for the publication Art in America in 1983. He has also been written up in ARTnews, Art Week, The LA Times, The San Francisco Chronicle, The London Observer, The London Times, The New York Times, The Village Voice, and Vogue Magazine. ” From the collection of the art historian, Peter Selz. .
