Daniel Meyer (b. 1945) Contemporary Pop Art Mixed Media Construction
Daniel Meyer (American, Contemporary) – Untitled (Figures under Umbrella), 1985.This exceptional mid-1980s 3D pop art construction beautifully showcases Chicago-native artist Daniel Meyer’s signature illusionistic style, combining a precisely airbrushed graphic backdrop of stylized figures sheltering under an umbrella with an explosive "rainstorm" of highly tactile, three-dimensional elements. The dynamic composition utilizes thick, high-gloss sculptural rods, vibrant colorful capsules, and heavily textured impasto paint dots that break the boundaries of the canvas to float forward into the viewer's space. Pencil-signed and dated Daniel Meyer '85 in the lower-right margin, this intricately layered piece represents the early peak of Meyer's widely collected mixed-media portfolio—whose works are featured in prominent corporate collections including McDonald’s, Harley Davidson, and Absolut Vodka—and is presented in excellent vintage condition within a custom splattered exhibition frame. Framed measures 41 x 31 inches. Overall good condition, a piece appears to be loose under the glass, please see photos
