Description: Rare vintage 1974 lithograph, titled "Boy with milkweed", crafted, hand-signed and numbered by noted artist Anton Refregier. Another of these limited edition lithographs is currently exhibited at the University of Minnesota, Frederick R. Weisman Museum of Art. Signed 78/100 "Boy with Milkweed" Anton Refregier in pencil, the frame measures 30 inches by 25 inches. The image field is 23 inches by 18 inches. In excellent vintage condition (minimal signs of wear to the frame: no tears or stains). Please note the lithograph has shifted somewhat within the frame and is slightly off-center (see pictures). The artist: " Anton Refregier was a muralist, a printmaker, sculptor, and set designer. Active in the art world as a judge of mural and sculpture competitions, as a member of various art associations, and as an art educator, Refregier led a life marked by the contrast between capitalist America’s wealth and prosperity, and its simultaneous dearth of culture and spirituality. As a result of the unique situation America found itself in during the twentieth century, Refregier wrote in a pamphlet that, 'the profit system is not capable of providing the fullest cultural development of the people,' a sentiment echoed in the artist’s struggle to create meaningful work in places normally not designated for art."
