HYACINTHE KULLER BARON PAINTINGS FROM THE PAST ARE ICONS FOR THE FUTURE.
In the 1960’s the American Public became aware of affordable original art and began a frenzy of collecting. Popular paintings by New York artist Hyacinthe Kuller (Baron) have remained timeless icons as evidence of their continued growing popularity in the 2000’s.
Dramatic images of fashionably attractive women posing in Hyacinthe’s paintings have become collectible modern symbols of the beauty of the power exuded by their female presence. Emotional renderings foreshadowed high fashion photographic styles captured by an artist gifted with extraordinary drawing skills. In the words of Marcel Duchamp:
“Hyacinthe is one of the finest natural draughtsmen I have encountered in this country.”
This is even more remarkable considering that at the time she met the founder of Dada, she was untrained and just beginning to give expression to her talents in works far more mature than her experience.
Hyacinthe was inspired by photographs of popular models and celebrities of the time with whom she had frequent contact. Suzy Parker, Lauren Hutton, Verushka, Angelica Huston, all posed for photos by her childhood friend Hair Dresser Ara Gallant. In his black-walled 57th Street studios Hyacinthe had the opportunity to sketch and to learn lighting techniques and the value of shadows.
Hyacinthe’s paintings of women and mother’s and children were distributed exclusively by the fine art dealer Herbert A. Starr. Beautifully framed they found their way to such prestigious art galleries as W.J. Sloane, Lord and Taylor, Saks Fifth Avenue, New York, Merrill Chase, Chicago, and important collections nationwide and in Europe.
In the late 1960’s and early ‘70’s, many editions of original Lithographs were commissioned and distributed in galleries and through art auctions. Hyacinthe was considered one of the most prolific and popular artists of her time.
Almost fifty years later collectors are reemerging, reminding Hyacinthe of pieces long forgotten letting her know how much pleasure her art has provided the collectors and their families.
Now the paintings are considered icons, their value is inestimable as they are rare and the only ones of their kind. No new originals on the themes are being created, nor are they available except for resale at high prices, or as art print reproductions. This has created a demand for giclee photographic prints that is growing rapidly. The artist hand touches and embellishes the reproductions and signs them anew in both numbered and unnumbered editions.
The Hyacinthe Kuller Baron Art Museum Trust is compiling a Catalog Raisonne and chronicling an archive of photographs and original paintings of all of her works. This includes: sculpture, fashions, home furnishings and published books.
Hyacinthe and her Husband and agent Ed Baron maintained Baron Galleries across the U.S. In the 1970’s she pioneered artist owned galleries on Madison Avenue; Port Washington, New York; Laguna Beach; Beverly Hills; San Francisco and San Diego, California.
Fictionalized adventures chronicled in published books, an Art Mystery Series: ‘Lavender in Laguna,’ ‘Hooker’s Green in New York,’ ‘Burnt Sienna in Scottsdale’.
While Hyacinthe always enjoyed inviting collectors into her studios and having direct contact, with the advent of virtual galleries, her notoriety and fame have increased a thousand fold.
Hyacinthe’s works appear on the world-wide web represented on many virtual gallery and auction sites on the internet.

Hyacinthe currently resides in San Diego, California. Currently completing a suite of large masterworks to be exhibited in museums and galleries at major fundraising galas to benefit the National Kidney Foundation. "We Are All Connected" are mixed media interactive sculptural creations incorporating oil brushwork and figurative sculptures.
A small painting by Hyacinthe,appraised at $17,000.00 was shown by Elyse Luray on the nationally syndicated Nate Burkus Television show.
Values of Hyacinthe's artworks continue to increase in private sales as recorded in the Registry maintained by the Hyacinthe Kuller Baron Art Museum Archival Trust, and range from $4800.00 to $450,000.00 for major art works created in the latter part of her very successful career in art. |
