- Lot Description
LOT #08 Fred Stonehouse Shortness of Summer, 2018 Acrylic on paper 10 x 8 in.; 20 x 16 in. framed $2,000-$2,500 In the Shortness of Summer, Fred Stonehouse blends his signature weeping self-portrait with elements of the animal kingdom that fuse into an unmistakable style. Leaflike wings and insect antennae underscore summer's fleeting days. The bravado strangeness of the painting recalls outsider art, a frequent source of influence. The artist's probing analysis into the nooks and crannies of the human psyche make him the leading exponent of Wisconsin's unique breed of contemporary Surrealism. Since his first solo show in 1983, Stonehouse has exhibited across the United States, as well as in Mexico, Amsterdam, Italy, the United Kingdom, France, and Germany. He received a Lifetime Achievement Award from Wisconsin Visual Artists in 2007 and grants from the National Endowment for the Arts and Arts Midwest among others. Stonehouse's work appears in collections across the country, including the personal collections of Madonna and Sheryl Crow.
