Robert Andrew Parker (B. 1927) USA, Sculpture. Signed on back. Parker considered to Cornwall Connecticut's Renaissance Man, he studied at the Art Institute of Chicago and his work is as eclectic as it is engaging. With "masterful illustrations, ranging from wartime aerial combat, foreign travel and sultry women, silent picture stars to pet dogs and cats curled, slanted exaggerated awash in soak of poppy pastels." His work's been seen in collections at the MoMA, The Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Whitney. A body of work that defines his range as one "Cool CAT." This particular cat sculpture is fun, whimsical and a bit naughty...and based on the Gibbs 1916 Serie des Chats. This provocative piece, comprised of wood captures a black and gray kitty cat standing on tube of toothpaste or is it a tube of paint? The phrase on the base under the tube translates to “Finally! I found the vein!” from French. Circa 1990. Size: 24 3/8 x 9 /8 x 32 3/4 in. #1408 Location Q
