Depicting an abstract scene in red and black on a white background. Provenance: From the estate of Vivian R. Fusillo. Vivian Fusillo (1927-2024) was a collector of rare discernment whose adventurous eye spanned post-war canvases to contemporary light-based works. A muse to figures like Richard Avedon and Elizabeth Taylor, she brought the same grace and vitality to her art collecting as to her life. After settling in Minnesota, Vivian became a beloved professor at Winona State University, where she directed over 100 plays and inspired generations of students - the main stage now bears her name in tribute.
