Bo Bartlett (American, B. 1955) - Fear of Division Initialed ‘IGN’ bottom left, oil on linen 54 ¼ x 80 ¼ in. (137.8 x 203.8cm) Executed in 1989. Provenance P·P·O·W., New York, New York. Private Collection, Connecticut. Lot Essay According to the artist, Fear of Division "is based on my early childhood memories of the Cuban missile crisis.. we were taught in school to drop and cover or hide under our desks if the bomb hit... one day my brother and I were out in the field below our house (where the Red Lobster is now on 13th - the 'tower' in the painting is actually the WRBL TV tower) and we saw the very first jet stream we'd ever seen- there weren't many commercial jets flying over West Georgia in the early '60s, My brother told me that the jet stream was the bomb, and that’s the moment I tried to capture in the painting, he is yelling, "Hit the Dirt, It's the End of the World!" I am crying on the ground. He kept it up, and I kept on crying. This happened around the same time that Camelot was crumbling, Kennedy was shot, I was having petite-mal seizures and I was completely confounded with the concept of division in second grade - addition, multiplication, and subtraction, I could grasp, but division was the beginning of my dysfunctional relationship with math. As Mrs. Hayes, my teacher would start a lesson on division, I'd go into a seizure.. I suppose on some level I was a victim of the age of anxiety, I had Fear of Division. Perhaps it explains why I still have separation anxiety" (Bo Bartlett).

(122.6 x 167.6cm) Provenance Private Collection, Pennsylvania. Lot Essay Bo Bartlett is a renowned American realist painter, known for his large-scale, highly detailed narrative paintings. Born in Georgia in 1955, Bartlett grew up in a rural setting, which greatly influenced his artistic style. He attended the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts (PAFA) in Philadelphia, where he honed his skills and studied painting and illustration. During his student years, Bartlett was exposed to various art movements and styles, which influenced his artistic development. He became enamored with the work of Andrew Wyeth, an American realist painter, known for his rural landscapes and emotionally charged portraits. Wyeth's artistic approach resonated deeply with Bartlett, shaping his own artistic vision. It was during this time that he also developed a deep appreciation for traditional techniques and a mastery of realism. Inspired by the works of Old Masters like Titian and Michelangelo, Bartlett sought to capture the essence of the human condition through his art. One of Bartlett's notable paintings, Fugue, was created during his time as a student at PAFA and went on to win the prestigious Cresson Award. Fugue showcases Bartlett's ability to capture everyday moments with astonishing realism and emotional depth. The painting depicts a simple interior scene, yet it transcends the ordinary and conveys a sense of introspection and contemplation. The composition is meticulously arranged, with the figure and each object in perfect harmony. Bartlett's attention to detail is exceptional, as he captures the subtle nuances of facial expressions, gestures, and even the textures of the surrounding environment. The use of warm, earthy tones adds to the overall warmth and familiarity of the painting, creating a nostalgic and intimate atmosphere. Fugue is a testament to Bartlett's artistic talent and his ability to infuse ordinary subjects with extraordinary significance. The recognition of winning the Cresson Award for Fugue further solidified Bartlett's promising career as an artist. The award recognized his exceptional technical skill and unique vision, propelling him into the spotlight within the contemporary realism art movement. Bartlett has since continued to create captivating works, exploring themes of family, memory, and the human experience. His ability to capture the essence of a moment and evoke profound emotions through his paintings has cemented his status as one of America's most accomplished living artists. Fugue remains a significant piece in Bartlett's body of work, revealing his early artistic brilliance and foreshadowing the exceptional career that lie ahead.

Est: $25,000 - $40,000
Bo Bartlett (American, b. 1955) Dowser Signed with artist's triangle insignia on stretcher, oil on linen. Executed in 1998. (51 1/4 x 67 in. (130.2 x 170.2cm)) Provenance Private Collection, Chicago, Illinois. Note Many of Bo Bartlett’s paintings explore themes of spirituality, often representing various aspects of faith, devotion and religious practices or rituals. With Dowser, the viewer is transported into a field with a young boy, modeled after the artist's son, whose eyes are closed in peaceful yet determined meditation, and who is participating in the ritual of dowsing. Dowsing is a practice that involves using a divining rod, pendulum or other tool to locate hidden objects or underground water sources. Dowsing can be seen as a spiritual pursuit, as it often encourages the use of intuition and connecting with the energy of the natural world. According to Bartlett, “Eliot posed for the Dowser. He’s wearing an old faded t-shirt. We can barely see it, but it says, 'Unite or Die' with a cut-up snake. He is dowsing for water, which is an interesting precursor to all the 'Water' series paintings.” To request a condition report, or for any additional information, please email Adrianne Wolkenberg at awolkenberg@freemansauction.com.

Bo Bartlett (American, B. 1955) The Promised Land
Est: $200,000 - $300,000
Bo Bartlett (American, B. 1955) The Promised Land Signed with Artist's cypher, dated '2015', signed again 'Bo' and titled verso, oil on linen 88 1/8 x 120 in. (223.8 x 304.8cm) Provenance The Artist. Acquired directly from the above. Private Collection, Connecticut. Exhibited "Bo Bartlett," Ameringer | McEnery | Yohe, New York, New York, July 7-August 12, 2006. Note "A threesome rows a small skiff out over the open seas. They crest and sway awaiting the next trough. They are alert as they survey every direction." It is in those terms that contemporary American painter Bo Bartlett describes his painting The Promised Land, a very large canvas executed in the summer of 2015 which is now appearing on the open market for the first time. Instantly iconic, and arguably one of the artist's most accomplished works, The Promised Land fits within a longstanding series of works featuring one or several characters floating in a dory against an expanse of open sky. The intensity and palpable tension at work here remind the viewer of earlier works such as Lifeboat (1988, a study of which Freeman's sold in 2007), or the more recent The Cove (2022), thus proving Bartlett's ongoing fascination with boats, and their symbolism. In many ways, The Promised Land illustrates Bartlett's overall complex approach to reality and storytelling. While the work can appear realistic in execution, it is more than a simplistic snapshot of an event Bartlett may have witnessed. It possesses the delicate quality of a vision, a dream almost, filled with open-ended meanings. In that sense, the picture acts as an archetype, one heavily influenced by the art of Winslow Homer, who often depicted the many perils of the sea, and Andrew Wyeth (Bartlett's own mentor), who also liked to feature boats in his compositions, likening them to the long-established metaphor for mortality in American art. Death is indeed what might be on the horizon for our three characters, judging from the troubled look on the main man's face and as revealed by the often-mysterious alternate titles Bartlett had in mind while completing the work, such as "Thine is the Kingdom," or "They Will be Done." While completing this picture over a period of six weeks on his remote home on Wheaton Island, off the coast of Maine, Bartlett was hearing on the radio the poignant stories of countless Syrian refugees risking their lives in the Mediterranean Sea as they tried to reach Europe in hopes for a better future. In this light, the boat and the three figures become a metaphor for endurance, and hope. They row on surrealistically high seas, persevering against all odds, unaware of what the future holds. They might override the ominous wave the boat rocks on, and continue their journey, or they can be swallowed by the ocean and disappear. In the meantime, they have little choice but to push through, to move forward, to keep rowing. A masterfully rendered work with a luminous quality, The Promised Land challenges the viewer to consider their own actions and humankind's broader impact on the world. As Bo Bartlett himself stated: "Like the characters in the boat, may we remember the past, stay focused in the present, keep a watchful and hopeful eye toward the future (...) and may we keep on rowing."
