André Olsufiev know this painter architect?
I have an original lithograph / seriograph by architect André Olsufiev, which is signed and numbered and purchased it at auction in the 1980s. Does anyone know anything about this architect who was born in Bucharest in the 1930s. I am unable to find this paint line all I can find is some pictures of a library as a place to buy posters prints. This painting is of a channel aligned with the velocity and sailboats and has office buildings in the background. A true testament to the architecture. Any help on this would be appreciated. I have been in contact with an Art Gallery in California that I deal with and had knowledge or idea. Any help would be appreciated
Is that all?
