about Still Life with Guitar
A Cubist rendition of a still life scene, prominently featuring an organic shape deemed to be a guitar by the title.
This is a framed oil painting by American Modern artist Benjamin Benno. 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.
