| Roi Partridge is known as an important modernist etcher and significant member of the San Francisco artistic circle that included Ansel Adams, Edward Weston, Dorothea Lange, Maynard Dixon, and Imogen Cunningham. The “focused realism” that these artists strove for in the 1920s produced some of the boldest visions in American art, often yielding highly abstract images with an emphasis on strong contrasts and patterning. In his etchings drawn from nature, Roi Partridge achieved rhythmic inton (showing 500 of 7689 characters). |
