Allen Tucker
Exposure to the latest artistic currents at the 1913 Armory Show had a profound effect on Tucker's own artistic development, prompting him to move away from impressionism to a more subjective manner inspired by Post-Impressionism, especially the art of Vincent van Gogh. Tucker subsequently became one of the first American painters to experiment with pure color, spirited brushwork, and a heavily encrusted paint surface, prompting critics to dub him the "Van Gogh of America."1 A landscape specialist, Tucker's greatest delight was in painting the countryside of Maine and Massachusetts, the sea and coast of the East, and the Highlands of New Jersey. He was also drawn to scenes in France and Italy. As was the case with van Gogh, Tucker sought themes of solitude and isolation, favoring robust expanses of meadowland and mountain scenery, as well as inland forests. Both Tucker and van Gogh viewed trees as symbols of growth and renewal, and accordingly, portrayed them as dynamic, upward- shooting forms. He energized his compositions through bold juxtapositions of contrasting forms−foreground to background, dark to light−that have a dynamism drawn from his brushwork. 1 See, for example, James W. Lane, "Vincent in America: Allen Tucker," Art News, Vol. 38, December, 1939, pages 171-178.

More about this artist:
Allen Tucker, was an architect and painter so influenced by Vincent Van Gogh that he was called "Vincent in America". (Gerdts 291) Robert Henri and Maurice Prendergast were also credited as having an influence on Tucker's brushwork and compositions, the latter decisively. However, as his painting evolved, he did not fit into any tidy slot for description and was known as an individualist not easily categorized in American art history.
Tucker was born in Brooklyn in 1866 and graduated from the School of Mines of Columbia University with a degree in architecture and took a job as an architectural draftsman in the architectural firm of McIvaine and Tucker, his fathers business. During that time, he studied painting at the Art Students League with Impressionist John H. Twachtman, but it was not until around 1904, when he was 38, that Tucker became a full-time painter, leaving architecture behind. Many of his early canvases were classically Impressionistic with poplar trees resembling those of Van Gogh and haystacks and corn shocks...
