American, 1920-2011
The Tournabouni Twins , 1983
Aquatint, signed and titled, edition of 250
Two young women back-to-back in matching kimono wielding crosses, unframed.
Byron Leslie Burford, Jr., born July 12, 1920, in Jackson, Mississippi, blossomed as a young artist
in a fascination with the carnivals and circuses booked by his YMCA director father, before leaving at age 14 to work as a roadie for the Tom Mix Circus, all the while using his exposure to circus life as inspiration for his work.
Burford studied at the University of Iowa School of Art and Art History, where he mentored by Grant Wood. In 1941 Burford completed a commission for the Treasury Department's Section of Painting and Sculpture, a mural for the U.S. post office in Houston, Mississippi. He received his bachelor's degree in 1942 and, after a brief stint in the Air Corps during Word War II, completed his Master of Fine Arts degree in 1947. He would continue at University of Iowa for 38 years as a painting instructor - developing a camaraderie with Kurt Vonnegut, who taught at the Iowa Writers' Workshop for two years in the 1960s.
Burford's academic success did not defer him from his aesthetic interest in circus life, and continued to subject soldiers, athletes, jazz musicians, factory workers and circus people in his work. A well-known artist in the Midwest, Burford exhibited widely and received many honors and awards, including a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1960 and a grant from the National Academy of Arts and Letters in 1967.

FRAME; 24 1/4" X 26 1/4".James Spencer Russell, American, (b.1950) Untitled, Letters, ca.1958-60, ink on paper signed lower right. Biography from Indiana State Museum James Spencer Russell (1915-2000) was born in Monticello, Indiana, but spent much of his life in New York City. He studied with Raymond Johnson at the University of New Mexico where he received his BFA, and with Donald Oenlenger at Yale University where he received his MFA. Russell exhibited his work in New York City with the Ruth White Gallery at 42 East 57th Street. His first one-man exhibition with the gallery, "Constructions", ran from April 21 through May 16, 1964. The exhibition was reviewed in The New York Times by Brian O'Doherty, the preeminent New York art critic of the era. Russell continued to exhibit all across the U.S. from 1961 to the 1990s, and was considered a pioneer of set design for conversion to color television, working at NBC Television in the 1950's. His one-man shows of watercolors and drawings resulted in the inclusion of pieces in the movies Midnight Cowboy and John and Mary. An avid jazz fan, his work was on the cover of Chico Freeman's album titled Chico., and exhibited at the American Federation of the Arts, the Rhode Island School of Design and at Southern Illinois University before he retired to his hometown of Kewanna, Indiana.
