[QUOTE="journeymagazine, post: 4344373, member: 84"]I saw these as they came in from a truck today - they were all large (at least 36") and surreal/abstract looking to me & my friend the manager of the thrift store immediately told me, "These are not going to be the regular prices I give you Charlie; these are fine art." I was able to make out - and look up - the 1st two below = Koranyi Gabor & the Upjohn (Buchi - right?) signatures and with those 2 listed artists I agreed to buy the 5 pieces for $100 each - $500 total But I can't make out the other signatures - can anyone please help? The bashful lady & the sculpture (as opposed to the angry lady below them - names I came up with since I don't know who the artists are!) look like they are both signed with a intertwined JC - are they by the same artist? The "angry lady" signature looks like R and the last name is indecipherable to me. Also it may sound stupid but if I don't ask I won't know - What is 'fine art' exactly? Any help with these signatures would be greatly appreciated; this was the most I've spent - at one time - at a thrift store! Thank you!!
