Noir et blanc will include six prints from the Drawings Portfolio
printed in 1948 by Eric Ledin. After WWII, the California School of
Fine Arts in San Francisco saw the enrollment of many war veterans
studying on the GI Bill. The school attracted instructors from all over
the country including the renowned surrealist printmaker, Stanley
William Hayter. Several of his students became known as the Sausalito Six, producing the Drawings Portfolio prints as a benefit for the Seashore Gallery in Sausalito. The Sausalito Six were Richard Diebenkorn, James Budd Dixon, John Hultberg, Walter Kuhlman, Frank Lobdell and George Stillman.
In addition, the 8 gallery is proud to feature the recently
discovered black and white works from another California School of Fine
Arts teacher- William Morehouse. The series was executed in 1965 and is
entitled "Nightflowers."
