An original both in terms of his art and his soul searching personality, the self-styled painter began establishing his now international reputation in the 1930’s, during the latter part of the Art Deco movement.

In the early 1980's, nationally acclaimed glass artist Stan Saran collaborated with Kaitz to create designs for tables and home decor. Saran is the only artist to collaborate with Gustave Kaitz and to reproduce his images in another medium. Today, Stan Saran continues to create his glass carvings.

Over the years I came to consider
Gus my mentor both spiritually and artistically. I hope to continue creating, in his honor, art deco illusions in carved glass  --Stan Saran --

Gustave Kaitz Art Deco illusions interpreted by Stan Saran in carved glass are available by commission and are on display at his Marco Island, Florida gallery.

Visitors to the site can view as well as purchase selected works of this visionary artist.

Regarded as the last American Art Deco artist of the twentieth century, Gustave Kaitz died in 1992, leaving a legacy of extraordinary magnitude of original paintings and sketches spanning nearly seven decades. Upon visiting the site, viewers will behold the singular art of this renowned American artist.

Kaitz’s mythologies are peopled in celestial beings - women who are not really women at all; they are goddesses, or mythical subjects like Leda and the Swan, Lake Goddess, and his signature work The Gatsby Girl - illusions  beyond the confines of time. They are intellectual concepts, more than tangible creatures of beauty. The Kaitz collection expounds an era of Art Deco in its supreme form.

The Kaitz legacy remains unsurpassed in its Deco magnificence taking on the thrust of the 21^st Century.

The Gustave Kaitz Studio is located in Monticello, New York.
