              Emil Bisttram American / Hungarian, (1895 - 1976) abstract geometric, 1940 encaustic on paper Signed lower right. Biography from the Archives of askART: Hungarian born, Emil Bisttram became one of the Southwest's leading painters and teachers. He was a founder of the Transcendental Art movement in New Mexico, devoted to themes exploring and promoting universal meaning that included idealistic forms and colors that suggested sounds. Best known as an abstract painter, his style ranged from the classic regionalism of the 1930s (WPA murals) to abstractions based on the dynamic symmetry theories he learned from Jay Hambidge, tempered by Roerich's Russian mysticism. Indeed, Bisttram would often speak of his association with Nicholas Roerich at the Master Institute in New York City, citing a story where the Russian master handed him a handful of wider brushes for his birthday thus indicating that he should employ broader strokes in his paintings. He received his artistic training in New York at the National Academy of Design, Cooper Union, and the Art Students League and with Mexican muralist, Diego Rivera. In 1930, Bisttram first traveled to Taos, New Mexico, but found himself frustrated by the grandeur and limitless space of the scenery. Initially he directed his attention to watercolor depictions of Southwest Indian ceremonial dances. "His credo was to paint not so much for the sake of art as 'for the spiritual insight he gains from the act of creation." (Gibson 56). He went for several months to Mexico to study mural painting with Diego Rivera, taught briefly in Phoenix, Arizona, and in 1931, settled in Taos. There he established the Taos School of Art and frequently lectured on comparisons of modern and representational art and promoted the theories of Kandinsky and Mondrian. He also started the Heptagon Gallery in Taos. He co-founded with Raymond Jonson the Transcendental Painting Group that promoted non-objective painting, and for a period devoted himself to painting symphonic rhythms. However, he also did realistic subjects, believing that an artist should not limit his style. His murals can be found in the courthouses in Taos and Roswell, New Mexico and the lobby of the Department of Justice Building in Washington DC. Sources include: Peter Hastings Falk (Editor), Who Was Who in American Art Peggy and Harold Samuels, Encyclopedia of Artists of the American West Arrell Morgan Gibson, The Santa Fe and Taos Colonies Additional information courtesy of Burt Wilson. Added note: According to a brochure from 1948, Bisttram maintained the Emil Bisttram School of Fine Art in Los Angeles, California, in the 1940's at 636 South Ardmore at Wilshire Boulevard. The school offered a four year Fine Arts Course and additional Summer sessions in Taos, New Mexico. Bisttram himself is named as instructor. The school also offered a course in Advertising and Illustration Art. Information provided by Carol Putman
