Infused with vivid color and lined with thick brushstrokes, Benjamin Benno’s punchy still life is a more graphic-inspired example of his Cubistic work featuring flowers and musical instruments in warm, inviting spaces.
By the early 1930s he had established a reputation as a member of the international avant-garde and exhibited with the most significant European artists including Paul Klee, Max Ernst, Wassily Kandinsky, Salvador Dalí, Joan Miró, Hans Arp, and Fernand Léger. Pablo Picasso sponsored Benno’s first one-man show in Paris in 1934.
