MODERNIST INTERIOR WITH FIGURES AND HOUSEPLANT BY TED FIELDS (2014)

Framed modernist interior scene, with slender male figures and a sprawling houseplant, by Washington, D.C., artist TED FIELDS. Executed in Kelly green, rose pink, and assorted muted pastels. The artist incorporates several elements that underline, in hyperbolic fashion, modernism’s prefigurement in 15^th-century Mannerism: asymmetrical composition; the figure’s queerly small heads, stylized features, and elongated limbs; and the flattened pictorial plane. Signed and dated lower right.
