Maria Helena Vieira da Silva left her hometown Lisbon in 1928 with the intention to study sculpture at the Académie La Grande Chaumière in Paris. Amid the vibrant Parisian art scene, her interests extended to painting, which she studied with Fernand Léger, among others. In the mid 1930s, Vieira da Silva began working in increasingly abstract modes. Yet abstraction was never Vieira da Silva’s only concern—even earlier in her life, her excitement with the speed of modern life led to an interest in the dynamic pictorial strategies of the Italian Futurists, but she also reacted strongly against those artists’ alliance with Fascism.Attrib-Certificate of Authenticity, water color on paper,size:10.5 "h x 14"w,come with frame, shipping in US $169.Condition Report: - By registering to bid for this auction either in-house or online and/or placing a bid in this auction the BIDDER/BUYER agrees to all the terms and conditions of Dynasty Fine Arts Gallery Auctions. - All silver, gold and/or jewelry lots or invoices containing said lots MUST be paid for via wire transfer or cashiers check, no other forms of payment will be accepted. - We recommend looking into shipping quotes prior to bidding, shipping quotes from Dynasty Fine Arts Gallery . - All sales are final; no refunds will be given under any circumstances. -Dynasty Fine Arts Gallery provides condition reports as a courtesy to our clients and assumes no liability for any error or omission.
