Description
Manoucher Yektai, French, American, 1922 to 2019, oil painting on canvas depicting an abstract composition, 1954. Signed and dated, upper right. Framed. Manoucher Yektai was an Iranian born American artist. He is associated with New York School art movement. Yektais work reflects a somewhat different philosophy. The metaphysical absolutism that attracted what Rosenberg called the theological branch of Abstract Expressionism did not attract him. His natural approach combined the celebration of the beautiful with something of the painting of everyday life approach. Far from seeing himself as a destroyer of beauty, Yektai believes in the dignity of human life and celebrates the beauty of the forms it transpires among. Yektai has many works in North American and European collections and museums, including the Museum of Modern Art, the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and numerous private collections such as the Yellowstone Art Museum. One of a kind artwork.
