Bert Gallery Studio Sales

Description & Details

Peter and Cynthia Corbridge lovingly collected an eclectic array of American paintings, prints Native American pottery and sculpture over 49 years together. The nexus of the collection is Provincetown and New England artists. Peter spent summers meandering with his father, artist Edgar Corbridge, through Provincetown artist studios and shops in the early 1950s. This childhood experience and inheriting Edgar's art collection spearheaded Peter's collecting focus. His own creative path led to study at RISD where he was immersed in the creative Providence art culture. While obtaining a Social Work degree at the University of Rhode Island he met his beloved Cynthia, and they began a lifelong journey of collecting New England artists and other artists they encountered during their travels across the country and Ireland. The artworks for sale in this auction include a wide array of collecting arenas. In the painting category, Edgar Corbridge is represented with his precise lines and bold washes in watercolor depicting unpopulated, quiet landscapes and Provincetown vistas. Many early Provincetown artists are included such as Sol Wilson, John Pike, Bruce McKain, and Robert Hunter Douglas. Their collection includes important printmakers such as Diego Rivera, Fritz Eichenberg, Crawford Ralston, Richard Florsheim and Federico Castellon; prints by photographers Harry Callahan, Eugene Atget and an array of paintings and prints from The Providence School such as Edna Lawrence, David Macauley, Walter Feldman and Karnig Nalbanian are also in the collection. Peter became involved with a pottery cooperative in South County, producing some beautiful pots that will be in the auction along with a collection of Native American pottery such as the Santa Clara potter Red Star and other Pueblo pottery.
It is exciting to offer this single owner collection and increase the gallery outreach beyond Providence, RI to a wider audience online with a dedicated artwork online auction.
