Born in southern California, Robert Kushner moved to New York City in 1972; there he became one of the founders of the Pattern and Decoration movement. His early works, painted on unstretched cloth, were often worn as costumes for performances. Since the 1980s, Kushner has focused on floral and botanical still lifes, both in paintings—as in the exquisite work reproduced here—and in prints and works on paper. Bold blocks of color, lavish application of paint, delicate drawing, and decorative elements of metal leaf and glitter underpin his flower, fruit, and vegetable motifs. Kushner’s work has been the subject of dozens of solo exhibitions and is in the permanent collections of many prominent museums worldwide, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art, and the Whitney Museum of American Art, all in New York City; the J. Paul Getty Trust, Los Angeles; the Uffizi Gallery, Florence; and the Tate Gallery, London. Ten full-color 5 x 7" blank notecards (5 each of 2 styles) with envelopes in a decorative folio.
