About the Item
Clinton Hill (1922-2003), created quintessential mid-century images. This abstraction references Florence, Italy, where he studied in the early 1950s.
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, 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 America Art Museum, Washington, DC, and the Victoria and Albert Museum and the British Museum, London.
This drawing is signed, titled, and dated in the lower right corner, in pencil.
