Bidspirit auction | American Orville Bulman Oil On

American Orville Bulman Oil On Panel Painting - Very fine oil on panel painting by well listed American artist Orville Bulman ( 1904-1978). Framed. Signed lower left. Size: 26 1/8 ” x 22 1/8” Framed; 19 3/8” x 15 3/8” Unframed. Orville Bulman (June 6, 1904 - January 4, 1978) was an American businessman-turned-painter. He owned a gallery on Worth Avenue in Palm Beach, Florida, and he did over 2,000 paintings over the course of his career. Three works from Orville Bulman, the self-taught Michigan artist whose admiration for Haitian art indelibly altered his own style, got the sale off to a good start. Though he always had a personal practice in art, Bulman’s first dive into the exhibition circuit came in his mid-thirties when he exhibited at New York’s Society of Independent Artists. He began to winter in Palm Beach, Fla., in his forties, which gave him a chance to travel the southern states and gain inspiration for his African American genre scenes. These would bloom into full fruition when in 1952 he visited Haiti for the first time and became enamored with the style of its people and art.
