    Add Review/Comment

    In the years following World War II, many innovative American painters came to the fore, focusing attention away from the Paris-based art scene that had for so long held a position of authority and influence. It was during this time that American abstraction rose to prominence in the national and international art world. This companion exhibition to "Hans Hofmann: Circa 1950" includes paintings, drawings and sculpture made on or around 1950 by notable artists such as Jimmy Ernst, Gertrude Greene, Charles Shaw and others.
