(Cond: retouched, cleaned) cf. Benjamin (Benny) Collin (1896 -1979), born Benjamin Cohen, he was a Danish émigré who came to the U.S. fleeing Nazi persecution during the war. Upon arriving in the United States, he pursued a career in art working on altarpieces for churches in the northeast by day and geometric abstractions based on the “Golden Spiral” by night. Informed by the strong tradition of European abstraction, he created many colorful acrylic-washes on canvas, found materials and paper with compositions based on a complex mathematical formula that yielded rhythmic, vibrant, kaleidoscopic images evoking the repetition of musical scores such as those of Bach and Mozart.

UNTITLED§ ANTHONY BENJAMIN (BRITISH 1931-2002)
UNTITLED (MOROCCO SERIES), 2002 12/20, numbered in pencil (lower left), etching on paper42.5cm x 42.5cm (16.75in x 16.75in)Anthony Benjamin is regarded as a talented polymath; a painter, sculptor and printmaker. Having studied in Paris under Fernand Leger, Benjamin came to St Ives in the late 1950s as a rebellious young artist. Using a small legacy, he purchased a cottage which previously belonged to Sven Berlin. Here, he found encouragement from the likes of Peter Lanyon, accepting his suggestion to join the Newlyn Society of Artists. He had his first one-man exhibition there in 1958. His work developed rapidly here, and he was apparently well supported and encouraged by significant figures in the art world, including Henry Moore and Francis Bacon who gave him canvases. Originally rooted in a more 'kitchen-sink' aesthetic, in Cornwall Benjamin's work became more Abstract Expressionist in concept.
