MASTERS OF THE AMERICAN WEST exhibition and sale returns February 11-March 26, 2023, Autry Museum of the American West in Griffith Park, Los Angeles, California. The Art Sale night will be February 25, 2023.

Logan Maxwell Hagege is one of over fifty-five extraordinary nationally recognized artists showing work in this prestigious exhibition and sale.

Logan Maxwell Hagege (pronounced Ah-jejj) is a Los Angeles–based contemporary artist with modern visions of the West. His paintings exhibit all the hallmarks of his classical art training from an academy in Southern California, a modern-day atelier, in which students refined their skills by drawing and painting live models every day for years.

Yet it is in the artist’s departure from strict realism where his work now draws its strength and where his vision is fed by a heady mix of nature and imagination. A power born of observation, recollection, and creative inspiration imbues Hagege’s images of the American Southwest.

Hagege’s mature style, which he terms “stylized realism,” has made him a master of design. His signature clouds often mimic the shapes of the blanketed figures in the foreground, creating visual roadmaps for the viewer and further adding to the design and narrative of each composition.
