- Joanne-Greenbaum | moCa Cleveland
Title Round Joanne Greenbaum Untitled , 2007 Oil and flasche on linen 20 x 16 inches From the collection of Steve Shane, NYC, in honor of Joanne Cohen Estimated Retail Value: $10,000 Starting Bid: $5,000 Through her use of vibrant color and intuitive composition, Joanne Greenbaum’s work achieves balance through the unconventional layering of forms in a complex pictorial space. A desire for continual reinvention serves as the motivating force behind her distinctive and immediately recognizable paintings, works on paper and ceramics. Often using drawing as the springboard for her paintings, Greenbaum formulates a vital relationship between the two approaches which ultimately reflects her own unique vocabulary of line and volume. Her ceramic sculptures follow a similar path in clay- building structures which lead to surprising and highly inventive forms.

- Corrie-Slawson | moCa Cleveland
Title Round Corrie Slawson Cloud Cover Over/In the Pantheon , 2025 Oil and mixed media on birch plywood 23 ½ x 20 inches Courtesy of SHAHEEN modern and contemporary art Estimated Retail Value: $4,200 Starting Bid: $1,200 Born, raised, and currently living in Cleveland Heights, Ohio, Slawson’s work consists primarily of painting, printmaking, drawing, and collaged elements that coalesce into detailed, panoramic landscapes or extreme close-up shots of swirling, amalgamated forms. Sometimes naturalistic, other times channeling a baroque surrealism, Slawson’s imagery has evolved from a photo-journalistic practice rooted in the visuals of her daily commute to a broad concern with global inequities resulting from Colonization and unbalanced wealth accumulation. Continually sourcing recognizable elements—from national and international architectural landmarks and historical icons to the local gas station on the corner—Slawson’s deepest concern as an artist and as an individual focus on those most vulnerable: endangered species, for example, or populations most affected yet least responsible for devastating climate changes.
