About the Item
Clinton Hill (1922-2003), created quintessential mid-century images.
He lived in SoHo, New York, and was a frequent Gallery visitor.
Born in Idaho and raised on a working ranch, he joined the US Navy during World War II and became a commander of a minesweeper in the Pacific. After the war, on the GI Bill, he attended the University of Oregon, Eugene, graduating in 1947. Moving to New York City with his partner Alan Tran, Hill attended the Brooklyn Museum School from 1949 to 1951. In 1951 Hill studied at the Academie de la Grande Chaumiere, Paris, and the Instituto d'Arte Statale, Florence. His first of many one-person shows was at the Zabriskie Gallery, NYC, in 1955. His friend Mark Rothko suggested its title, Ladders and Windows. In 1956 he traveled to India on a Fulbright scholarship. Through his prints, sculpture, books, hand-made objects, and lifetime of experimentation of materials, he pushed the boundaries of Abstraction. He taught at Queens College, NY, for twenty years.
His work is in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Museum of Modern Art, Guggenheim Museum of Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, Brooklyn Museum, and the Albright-Knox Museum of Art, Buffalo, NY, the Smithsonian American Art Museum, Washington, DC, and the Victoria and Albert Museum and the British Museum, London.

Abstract Work on Paper Mid-Century Modernism Greek American Gouache Drawing
By Jean Xceron
Located in New York, NY
Abstract Work on Paper Mid-Century Modernism Greek American Gouache Drawing.
A modernist artist who emigrated to America from Greece in 1904, when he was fourteen years old, Jean Xceron is described as having a reputation as an artist that has mysteriously fallen into obscurity---especially since he was reportedly quite prominent during his lifetime. However, a partial explanation of that omission is the fact that many of his papers and early records have been lost. He was a painter of biomorphic abstractions and did collages, which were influenced by Dadaism.
Xceron was active in New York City when modernism was gaining influence. Of him during this period, it was written that his artistic role was "a vital link between what is commonly termed as the first-generation (the Stieglitz group, the Synchromists, etc.) and second-generation, the American Abstract Artists, the Transcendental Painting...
