Modern Abstract Black Ink Line Drawing of a Reclining Female Nude

1989

About the Item

Modern abstract black ink line drawing of a reclining female nude. The work features a loose rendering of a single woman laying on her left hip and looking off in the distance. Signed and dated in front lower right corner. Currently unframed, but options are available. Artist Biography: Frank Dolejska was born in Houston, Texas on February 25, 1921. He was the first-generation child of immigrant parents from Austria-Hungary and Moravia. Along with Robert Preusser, Dolejska was among the first non-objective painters in Texas with works dating back to 1938. While primarily self-taught, he was a student of McNeill Davidson for a brief time. After serving in World War 2, Dolejska returned to Houston where he became the curator for the new organization, the Contemporary Arts Association. Leaving the CAA in 1956, Dolejska took up metal work, creating sculptures with copper and lead. His early paintings are rare because he burnt many of them. Dolejska passed in Houston on May 30, 1989.
