Lot 0052: SIGNED GIORGIO CAVALLON ABSTRACT GEOMETRIC PAINTING

41 reviews

A watercolor on paper painting depicting an abstract expression geometric composition signed lower right: G. Cavallon and dated 47. Matted and framed. Giorgio Cavallon, American, 1904 to 1989, was influenced early in his career by Dutch modernist Piet Mondrian. In New York City during the 1930s and 1940s, he was closely associated with Arshile Gorky, William De Kooning, and other abstract expressionists. The geometric forms in relatively later work such as Untitled, 1959, in the collection of the Whitney Museum of American Art, have been compared to the color shapes of the early work of Matisse. During the mid 1930s, the artist joined the WPA Federal Art Project, and worked for a time as an assistant to abstract painter Arshile Gorky. He was a founding member of American Abstract Artists, an organization in which he was involved from 1936 to 1957. One of a kind artwork. Mid Century American Fine Art Collectibles, Abstract Paintings For Wall Decor.
