Description
Tarmo Pasto
(1906-1986)
"Seven Sunflowers," 1973
Oil on canvas
Signed and dated lower right: Tarmo Pasto; titled on a piece of brown paper affixed to the frame, verso
36" H x 30" W
Other Notes: Tarmo Pasto, a noted psychologist and art professor, was also a prolific painter who frequently exhibited his works. Though he is perhaps best known for bringing attention to the work of one of his patients, the so-called Outsider artist Martin Ramirez, Pasto was a key figure in a circle of artists working in and around the Sacramento area during the post-war period. This loose coalition of artists, which includes figures such as Mel Ramos, Wayne Thiebaud, and Jack Ogden, is known for exhibiting their work at institutions such as the Crocker Art Museum which holds examples of Pasto's work in its permanent collection.
In 1986, four years after a retrospective was held at the Crocker Art Museum, Tarmo Pasto died and left behind a large body of work that has largely remained unseen by subsequent generations of viewers.
