Erik Nitsche (Swiss, 1908 - 1998) "Ludwig Mies Van Der Rohe Designs" Signed lower right. Original Mixed Media painting on Illustration Board. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting is the original which was published on the Fleetwood First Day Cover for the German 50pf Ludwig Mies van der Rohe stamp issued February 13, 1986. With Frank Lloyd Wright, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe is considered one of the fathers of twentieth century architecture. From his earliest works with Walter Gropius to his collaboration on the Seagram's building in New York, Mies van der Rohe was a dominant force in and leading exponent of the International Style of architecture. He perfected the use of reinforced concrete, steel and glass to create a simplicity of design which emphasized a horizontal perspective. His "skin and bones" designs epitomized his "less is more" philosophy. Mies van der Rohe first gained international prominence with his design for the German Pavilion at the 1929 International Exposition in Barcelona, Spain. The design was a triumph of chrome-plated steel columns, green marble dividers and gray glass highlighted by a reflecting pool. Mies van der Rohe also designed his famed chair, stool and table which gave the interior of the building a timeless quality of perfection. After fleeing Germany, Mies van der Rohe settled in Chicago as director of architecture at the Illinois Institute of Technology (I.I.T.). There he spread his philosophy to young American designers and completed perhaps his finest work -- Crown Hall which houses the School of Architecture and Design at I.I.T. Mies van der Rohe left I.I.T. to resume his private practice. He continued to design noteworthy structures until his death. Image Size: 12 x 14 in. Overall Size: 15 x 20 in. Unframed. (B09932)

CONTACT USSKU#: 121059US Shipping $29 + insurance.BIOGRAPHY:Artist's autobiography as follows:"I have been an artist as long as I can remember. An early family photo shows me at about four years old, at the living room coffee table, already with a paint brush in hand. Creating art has never been a conscious choice or an option. Rather, it is a unique wellspring of creativity that truly defines me as a person. The process of creating art comes as naturally to me as spoken language.I was born and raised in Southern California. Fascinated by stories about Hawaii and the islands of the South Seas and the Caribbean, I often dreamed of living and working in the tropics, and at age 19, I sailed from California to Hawaii on a 30 foot sailboat. Then I hired on with the famous Windjammer Cruises. It was a dream job! I sailed through a series of tropical paradises, and in my spare time, I continued to draw and paint impressions of what I saw. It was during that period that my unique painting style began to develop. Later, I relocated to Honduras and worked on a private sailing charter boat in the Bay Islands, where I continued to record my experiences on canvas and paper. I continue working on my artistic skills and enjoy seeing the changes over the years. My deep respect for the beauty and diversity of nature, and my lifelong interest in travel to exotic locales, is evident in my painterly depictions of the verdant foliage, sparkling waters, lush colors, and the quiet scenes of everyday life in Hawaii. My colorful paintings, drawings and murals are represented in numerous public and private fine art collections throughout the World.I live on the beautiful, magical island of Maui and continue to enjoy various exotic travel venues that continue to inspire and enhance my creativity."
