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.

Artist Statement from Hyacinthe Baron, American Master Artist.
Born 1936...NYC. "Life is a journey and I have searched for ideals and
values. Always looking for a way to disregard the pain of reality and
immerse my viewer and collectors in beauty.
As a Master Artist I strive to capture emotions and movement according to my mentor Marcel Duchamp.
I seek to convey the power of creativity: from the first marks on
my paper and canvas, to the first drawings of my fashion and home decor designs, to the first words of my published novels, self-improvement books and poetry.
Who is the female in my paintings, drawings, graphic prints, artistic
books in print?
"She" is 'Cassandra' - the mythical prophetess whom none would believe. She is the model I have been portraying during my professional artistic career of more than forty years.
She represents the beauty of the human spirit.
She is an 'Aspara'. The female as my aesthetic ideal and my portrayal of how the duality of human nature becomes an expression of harmony."
Hyacinthe Baron portrays fantasy images of women as Sci-Fi and Fantasy paintings and sculptures and the subjects are drawn from her mythological novels about'Cassandra'and 'Asparas' in all aspects of the female: Alluring, sensuous, a courtesan, tender as mother with child. The inspiration to artists and poets.Often animals represented by a horse or wolf display the male aspect.
Hyacinthe Baron artworks and books in print may be viewed at her websites.
