Yvonne Thomas
Untitled, 1962
Signed with initials and dated lower right
Oil on paper
8 3/4 x 12 inches
Yvonne Patricia Thomas, born in Nice, France, in 1913, immigrated to the United States with her family in 1925, initially residing in Boston prior to relocating to New York. She briefly studied at Cooper Union; however, she transitioned to the commercial application of her talent as a fashion illustrator when her family encountered economic challenges during the Great Depression. In 1938, Thomas advanced her artistic pursuits by attending the Art Students League, where she received instruction from Vaclav Vytacil and Dmitri Romanovsky, and subsequently honed her skills at the Ozenfant School of Fine Art under the guidance of Amadée Ozenfant.
Thomas's professional trajectory underwent a notable shift upon her enrollment at the Subjects of the Artists School in 1948, this collaborative setting that included prominent figures of the American avant-garde, such as Willem de Kooning, Jackson Pollock, and Mark Rothko. This pivotal experience reinforced her dedication to modernist principles. Under the mentorship of Hans Hofmann, with whom she studied in Provincetown, Massachusetts, in 1950, Thomas adopted a more gestural and expressive artistic style, transitioning away from her previous Cubist influences.
Her contributions received acknowledgment through the Ninth Street Exhibition of Paintings and Sculpture in 1951, followed by exhibitions at the Stable Gallery. Thomas's inaugural solo exhibition occurred at the Hendler Gallery in Philadelphia in 1954, subsequently leading to notable exhibitions at the Tanager Gallery and various other locations throughout the 1950s and 1960s. Her artistic style transitioned from Cubist frameworks to a more fluid, gestural methodology, which garnered acclaim in critiques by Stuart Preston and Dore Ashton.
Thomas's subsequent oeuvre was featured in individual exhibitions in New York, Paris, and Montreal. Notwithstanding her substantial contributions to Abstract Expressionism, Thomas's acknowledgment failed to attain parity with that of her male counterparts. Her contributions were showcased posthumously in the 2016 Women of Abstract Expressionism exhibition at the Denver Art Museum, emphasizing her significant role within the movement.
