* Ernst Neuschul [1895-1968]-Verangstigte Kinder:-signed with initials and dated EN '48 bottom rightoil on canvas66 x 56cm.* Notes Exhibited. Ernest Neuschul. From the New Objectivity to the New Unobjectivity. Oil Paintings from 1926 to 1966. Berlin.* Biography. Ernest Neuschul was born in Aussig, in what is now the Czech Republic. He studied in Prague and later Vienna, where he was introduced to the paintings of Klimt and Egon Schiele and the expressionistic works of Oskar Kokoschka.At the outbreak of World War I Neuschul moved to Cracow in 1916 and after the war ended he moved to Berlin, joining the Academy of Arts. In 1919 Neuschul's first one-man exhibition opened in Prague.In Berlin, Neuschul embarked on an active period, painting under the post-war influence of the New Objectivity (Neue Sachlichkeit) movement. In 1926 he joined the Novembergruppe, first founded in 1918 and a vigorous opponent of Fascism. He also got to know Ludwig Meidner who was painting expressive and highly emotional figure subjects often with a religious theme.In 1932 Neuschul became Professor of Fine Arts at Berlin's Academy of Fine Art and was also elected chairman of the Novembergruppe. In 1933 an exhibition of his paintings was closed down by the Nazis and because of his Jewish birth and radical political opinions Neuschul also lost his teaching post and in March 1933 he returned to Aussig accompanied by his wife Christl.In 1935 Neuschul was invited to exhibit and work in the Soviet Union, painting portraits of steelworkers and revolutionary figures and even gaining a double portrait commission of Stalin and Dimitroff. In 1937 however several of Neuschul's paintings on exhibition in Aussig were vandalised and disfigured with swastikas, a grim foretaste of what awaited him and his family if they remained.Neuschul, his wife and child eventually escaped the Nazis on the last train out of Czechoslovakia, arriving in London in 1939. In 1959, a one-man exhibition was held at the Betzalel National Museum in Jerusalem and in 1966 a major retrospective exhibition in Berlin with the title 'From the New Objectivity to the New Non-Objectivity'.He died in London in 1968

* Jim Gilbert [1933-1995]- Coming from School:-signed 'Convict G' bottom left inscribed on the stretcheroil on canvas75 x 60cm.* Biography. Jim Gilbert grew up in the East End of London and was dishonourably discharged from National Service aged 21. He was a big and powerful man who spent years in jail for crimes ranging from drug smuggling to robbery. Confined in the 1960s, he began painting as a form of therapy. Many of his figure paintings, with a strong resemblance to the work of Peter Howson, are in a sensitive, sombre, narrow palette and reflect, in a disturbed and isolated way, his early harsh life experiences. In 1972 he had his first show in Bath, received the Arthur Koestler Award for Prisoner Art and in 1973 was chosen by The Dylan Thomas Society to paint a portrait of the poet for presentation to US President Jimmy Carter. His later works of Morocco and Spain, where he died, are sensitive, calm and gentle watercolours.
