    Retired Puppet #1 is one of the few Asian themed paintings by the artists Gage Taylor and Uriél Dana, Oil On Canvas (1988). It was painted during the 3 years the artists lived in Hawaii. During this time their work was represented by Center Art Galleries on Maui and the Illuminarium Gallery in Beverly Hills.

     
    Gage Taylor and Uriél Dana worked together on the same canvas for 17 years. Their collaborative work was based on archetypes that repeat in the East, the West, and the Middle East. Working in the style of the Old Masters (building layers on layers of thin glazes) they strove to find the thread that connected all people, not what separated them.
     
    Gage Taylor died in 2000. Uriél Dana is still alive and continues to paint. She divides her time between Europe and her 3000 square foot atelier in Jack London Square in Oakland, Ca.
     
    This work was included in a museum exhibit exclusively featuring Gage Taylor & Uriel Dana (The Egyptian Rosicrucian Museum, San Jose, California, 1993).
     
    MEASUREMENTS: 18" x 14" unframed, 25.5" x 29.5" framed.
     
    There is a a touch of craquelure (natural ageing) in the gesso invisible to the naked eye (shown in the last photograph). The painting has been meticulously maintained and was cleaned professionally earlier this year.
     
    FRAME: Hand rubbed Hawaiian koa wood and 18k gold flake from Italy with a faux suede scoop lining. This style frame was designed by Taylor & Dana specifically for their collaborative work. It is also custom tagged.
