Summary

This exhibition catalogue focuses on the art and friendships of the American artists Gertrude Abercrombie (19091977), Sylvia Fein (b. 1919), Marshall Glasier (19021988), Dudley Huppler (19171988), Karl Priebe (19141976), and John Wilde (b. 1919). The first intensive study of this close-knit group explores the artistic and personal relationships they shared. Cozzolino provides insight into a figurative branch of postwar American modernism that has been often neglected in favor of abstract expressionism.
