Provenance
Private Collection, New York
Ray Parker was born in 1922 in South Dakota. After completing his MFA at the State University of Iowa, he moved to New York City in 1951. In 1955, he was hired as a Professor of Art at Hunter College, where he would teach until his death in 1990 in New York.
Throughout the 1950s he was included in a number of important group exhibitions organized by major museums, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art, and the Whitney Museum of American art. He would go on to exhibit widely across the country at galleries like the Stable Gallery and the Kootz Gallery in New York, as well as the Dwan Gallery and Paul Kantor Gallery in California.
Ray Parker’s “Stroke” paintings in the early 50s developed into the “Simple Paintings” done in the late 50s and early 60s. These consisted of a small number of cloudlike color shapes arranged across an often large canvas. The colors and their relationships to each other are the strength and drive behind these works. Parker worked on these intuitively, almost improvising each painting in turn. Of these works, he said, ‘Those isolated spots of color came to me just by staring at the empty canvas…I spread it out until it came into fullness of volume or a sense of reality, and I stopped there.”
In the 1970s and 80s, Parker moved away from his “Simple Paintings” towards a curvelinear style that allowed freedom of movement. That developed into his line paintings in which he squeezed color directly from the tube. He expanded on these lines with colored grounds, and then back to areas of color with linear elements.
His work is placed in many museum collections including the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Museum of Modern Art, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, and the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.

What You See - large, soft, blue, pink, gestural abstract, acrylic on canvas
By Milly Ristvedt
Located in Bloomfield, ON
A flurry of washed passages in a sky blue and rose pink mixed with passages of brilliant yellow, black, turquoise and cherise with curved strands of fixed pastel. These fine lines in bright green, electric blue, pink, cherise and black create spatial tension and depth within the large picture plane. This painting from 1980 is an early example of Ristvedt's ability to create a poetic narrative of space, light, texture and movement through color.
Milly Ristvedt (b. 1942, Kimberley, BC) RCA, began her career in Toronto in 1964 after studies with Takao Tanabe at the Vancouver School of Art. At 24, her work was included in the Centennial Exhibition at the Art Gallery of Ontario...
