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
21st Century.
