Image: 19 1/2 x 19 1/2Framed: 40 1/2 x 30Companion piece to Circe II (also for sale separately) Will Barnet (1911-2012) was born in Beverly, Massachusetts and studies at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts School and the Art Students League in New York. He later taught art at Yale University, Cornell University and the Art Students League. His early works were influenced by expressionism which was then followed by abstract works in the 1950s and 1960s. His style evolved into more figurative works of silhouetted forms set against geometrically designed backgrounds. His work is in many prestigious collections including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Guggenheim Museum in New York and the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. In Greek mythology: When Theseus came to Crete, Ariadne fell in love with him and offered to help him to disclose the way out of the Labyrinth if he would take her to Athens and make her his wife. He agreed. But after he left Crete, he deserted her in Naxos. She was found by Dionysus 2 who fell in love with her.
