EDITORS COMMENTS
Brackets" is a captivating watercolor, graphite, and gouache work on paper created by American artist Dana Bartlett in 1937. This exquisite piece, now part of the Heritage Art Collection, transports us back in time to the 1930s and 1940s in America. The intricate design showcases a series of ornate brackets, each one unique in its shape and form. Bartlett's mastery of color and technique is evident in the vibrant hues and meticulous detailing. The brackets, rendered in various shades of red, blue, green, and yellow, are depicted against a monochromatic background, making them stand out in stark relief. The use of graphite and gouache adds depth and texture, creating an almost three-dimensional effect. The concept of this artwork is both decorative and conceptual. The brackets, while serving a structural purpose, are presented as works of art in their own right. The artist invites us to appreciate their beauty and intricacy, rather than their functional role. This piece is a testament to the rich heritage of American art during the 20th century. It is a fascinating addition to the Index of American Design, a comprehensive collection of American decorative arts, housed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. The National Gallery of Art, a renowned cultural institution, is a fitting location for this beautiful work, which continues to inspire and captivate audiences. "Brackets" is not only a period item from the 1930s and 1940s but also a timeless work of art that transcends its historical context. Its intricate design and vibrant colors continue to captivate and delight, making it a must-see for anyone interested in American art and design.
