Title: Original still life painting of an alarm clock
Author: Bukowski, Charles
Description: Acrylic on paper, matted and framed. Without frame measures 7×10″ and with frame 16×13?”. Painted in green, blue, black, red and white. Signed “Buk” in black paint on lower right corner.Acquired by Abandoned Planet from Bukowski’s ex-lover, sculptor Linda King. The painting is very rare because it is a still life, while most of Bukowski’s early art is abstract and his later work is almost totally of “little man.” The painting shows an alarm clock pointing to 4 o’clock when Bukowski had to report to Post Office. Rare in its straight representation of a clock, with little abstraction. Even more desirable having been owned by Linda King, who inspired some of Bukowski’s maddest prose and poems and perhaps this piece of art.
