Untitled, 1989
Oil enamel on paper
Signed and dated lower right: Arnitz
Image/Sheet: 35" H x 23" W
Provenance: The Estate of Oscar and Barbara Leidenfrost

Other Notes: Proceeds to benefit non-profit organizations and educational institutions.

This lot is accompanied by a small exhibition flyer from the Leidenfrost's files. It lists 11 Arnitz oil paintings on either canvas or paper which were included in a show entitled "New Work" at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, October 12 - December 10, 1989. This show featured "A series of recent work by younger and established artists." Although it is not illustrated in the flyer, there is a chance that the present lot might be Arnitz's "Going Down (24 Stories)" shown in this exhibition, given the matching mediums, sheet size, and date.
