• TARMO PASTO (1906-1986),
  TARMO PASTO (1906-1986), "GOLCONDA II," OIL ON CANVAS, 38" H X 60" WTarmo Pasto, (1906-1986) "Golconda II", Oil on canvas Signed near the center of the lower edge: Tarmo Pasto; titled in pencil on the stretcher bar, verso Oil on canvas Dimensions: 38" H x 60" W Provenance: Notes: This lot is being offered in a frame hand-painted by the artist. The number 281 is written twice on the stretcher bar in ink, verso. Tarmo Pasto, a noted psychologist and art professor, was also a prolific painter who frequently exhibited his paintings during his lifetime. Though he is perhaps best known for bringing attention to the work of one of his patients, the so-called Outsider artist Martin Ramirez, Pasto was a key figure in a circle of artists working in and around the Sacramento area during the post-war period. This loose coalition of artists, which includes figures such as Mel Ramos, Wayne Thiebaud, and Jack Ogden, is known for exhibiting their work at institutions such as the Crocker Art Museum, which holds examples of Pasto's work in its permanent collection. In 1986, four years after a retrospective was held at the Crocker Art Museum, Tarmo Pasto died and left behind a large body of work that has largely remained unseen by subsequent generations of viewers. John Moran Auctioneers is pleased to offer this work for sale for the very first time.
