I'll be honest, I'm not that into mid-century art. As much as I love most mid-century design, mid-century art just doesn't strike a cord. And I'm OK with that for two reasons: 1) With art, I don't think there's a wrong answer; if you like it, then it doesn't matter what other people think and 2) I'm perfectly happy hanging modern,
lowbrow art next to my mid-century furniture.
That said,
MID-CENTURIA introduced me to mid-century artist Roderic Barrett and I instantly wanted to share his work so others could love it as much as I do (assuming it's your thing).
There's something slightly disturbing yet compelling about their broad faces. I looked at the ones on the Mid-Centuria site, and I instantly fell in love with the Mother and Child, as well as the wood engraving of The Painter.
