Framed serigraph 'Space Icon' by Jimmy Ernst (1920-1984). 'The son of Dada Surrealist artist Max Ernst and art historian Louise Straus-Ernst, Jimmy Ernst was influenced by the style of his father as well as friendship with William Baziotes and Kurt Seligmann and other modernists who he met through his parents... He worked at the Museum of Modern Art and in 1941, Peggy Guggenheim, patroness of the arts in New York, hired him as her personal assistant. His work is in numerous museum collections including the Pasadena Art Institute in California, the Toledo Museum of Art and Houston's Museum of Fine Arts.' {source: askart} (Key Word Search: Max Ernst, Hedda Sterne, Bradley Walker Tomlin, William Baziotes, James Brookes, Richard Pousette-Dart)
