JOHN METOYER (1966), "Bliss," Cyanotype on heavy watercolor paper
Est: $1,200 - $1,800
JOHN METOYER (1966), "Bliss," 17 x 20 - inch cyanotype on heavy watercolor paper. Signed in pencil with title and date "12/1996" on the verso. Metoyer is a poet and photographer. He is descended from a Frenchman who came to Louisiana and married a slave. Their plantation was possibly the first owned by a former slave. "Blood Migration" was published in a beautiful edition by 21st Editions in 2008. His cyanotypes have recently been shown in the 1916 exhibition "Cyanotypes: Photography's Blue Period" at the Worcester Art Museum in association with the Clark University Art Museum." They were exhibited in 2005 at the John Stevenson Gallery, New York. He is represented by the CEPA Gallery in Buffalo and the Kitano Alley Gallery in Kobe, Japan. This is a masterpiece in cyanotype. The image involves photographic representation, shadows and areas of light, scratchings on the surface of the negative, drips and droppings. In the midst of this the goblet takes on symbolic meaning.
