Original Description
Oscar Bluemner’s South Paterson; Houses In The Hills: A Double-sided Work is a striking early 20th-century modernist painting that radiates emotional intensity through bold colors and geometric abstraction. Created around 1915–16, this oil work belongs to Bluemner’s signature "Motiv" series, where he distilled urban and rural landscapes into vivid, symbolic compositions. The painting portrays Paterson, New Jersey—an industrial town near Bluemner’s home—through a dynamic interplay of angular rooftops, undulating hills, and dramatic hues like deep reds and midnight blues. His style fuses influences from European modernism (particularly Expressionism and Cubism) with a distinctly American sensibility, making it a significant bridge between avant-garde movements. Though overshadowed during his lifetime, Bluemner’s works, including this double-sided piece, now hold a revered place in discussions of early American modernism for their innovative use of color-as-emotion and architectural dynamism.
For a modern interior, this piece would elevate a study or living room with its rich narrative and chromatic depth. Its dual-sided nature offers versatility—display one side for a bold focal point or rotate occasionally for renewed energy. Given the painting’s vibrant palette (dominated by earthy reds and cool blues), pair it with neutral-toned furnishings like taupe linen sofas or walnut bookshelves to avoid visual competition. A matte black or brushed brass frame would accentuate its modernist edge. Ideal for a medium-sized wall (the artwork is modest in scale, typically under 30 inches), it thrives in spaces with ample natural light to highlight its textured brushwork. In an office, it could inspire creativity alongside sleek, minimalist décor—think a glass desk and monochrome prints—letting Bluemner’s emotional landscape take center stage.
