He studied in Paris with Fernand Leger & Andre Lhote, & on his return to New York, he helped found the American Abstract Artists in 1936. Considered an early Modernist, he combined both Cubism & Surrealism, & his works often had a fanciful & lyrical quality. Also an acclaimed portrait artist, he painted images of the Kennedy, Dupont, Rockefeller, & Mellon families. His works are in permanent collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Whitney Museum, the Pennsylvania Academy of Art. His works include oil paintings, watercolor & gouache, drawings, & screenprints. Please see all photos for details & email any questions. Shipping via USPS or Fedex with tracking & insurance.
