Lot Note:
R.B. Kitaj and Mr. Grey met as children in grammar school in Cleveland, Ohio, reconnecting years later as adults when Grey- by then an admirer of great artists- was struck to discover that “Ronnie Kitaj” had become the renowned R.B. Kitaj. A joyful reunion in London marked the rekindling of a deep bond. Reflecting on their reunion, Grey recalled embracing Kitaj at a gallery opening “as if we had seen each other the day before. I loved him very much."
Framed: 31 x 24 inches.
Largely very good condition. Some softening along extreme edges. Please note that this work was not examined out of frame.
