Seated Male Nude

Los Angeles, Rex Evans Gallery, Tchelitchew, 1965

"The greatest interest is evoked by such early works as Seated Male Nude, Spanish Equestrians and Pansies. It seems as if Tchelitchew could do almost anything with a line and proceeded to do so" wrote Henry J. Seldis, arts editor of the Los Angeles Times, on seeing Tchelitchew's exhibition at Rex Evans Gallery in 1965, where Seated Male Nude was exhibited.
