Description
WANDA GÁG
Moonlight.
Lithograph, 1926. 359x428 mm; 14x16 inches, wide margins. Edition of 60. Signed and dated in pencil, lower margin. Printed by George Miller, New York. A very good impression. Winnan 26.Gág's (1893-1946) first solo exhibition was held in 1926 at the Weyhe Gallery in New York. Like Edward Hopper, Gág's works reveal a disenchantment of the "American Dream" between the two world wars and seem to capture a moment in time, giving life to inanimate objects when there are no humans present. Coming to New York to attend the Art Students League on a scholarship in 1917, Gág began to explore the city's less aesthetic scenes, such as the subway stations, further encouraged by her classes with John Sloan.
