Alex Katz Art
American, b. 1927
Flat color and minimal forms contrast the often monumental scales of the paintings by Alex Katz through which he creates portraits and landscapes of deceptive simplicity. Although the signature stark style that defines his prints and other work is now recognizable at a glance, it took him a decade to develop. During that time, he has said he destroyed hundreds of paintings.
Born in Brooklyn, New York, to Russian émigré parents, Katz’s family moved to Queens when he was a baby and that is where his family’s passion for the arts supported his early creative interests. In 1946, he enrolled at the Cooper Union in Manhattan where he studied painting under Morris Kantor. While he was influenced by the bold colors and hard edges of modernism, he shifted away from the then-dominant Abstract Expressionism movement to figurative scenes of life that have an inherent cool in their pared-down approach. Especially impactful were Katz’s summer studies between 1949 and 1950 at the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture in Maine, a place where, as he later wrote: “I tried plein air painting and found my subject matter and a reason to devote my life to painting.”
Katz’s first solo show was in 1954 at Roko Gallery in New York. He experimented over the course of the following years with collage and painting on aluminum sheets, with his work in the 1960s drawing inspiration from film and advertising. In the 1970s, Katz expanded into portrait groups that regularly depicted the cultural scene of New York; in the 1980s, he extended his focus to fashion and its supermodels. Since the late 1950s, an enduring muse for his portraits has been his wife, Ada, while others have painted friends and famous figures. The intimate closeness of the frequently cropped faces in Katz’s portraits exudes a sense of tension with the subjects’ enigmatic expressions and planes of color.
In the 1960s, Katz collaborated with American dancer and choreographer Paul Taylor on sets and costumes. His concentration on landscapes emerged in the late 1980s, with atmospheric night views joining his practice, which had previously been defined by bright colors. Always finding new perspectives on his work, he has explored using iPhone photographs as the basis for large-scale compositions in recent years.
Katz’s prolific career has spanned sculpture, prints and public art along with his paintings and drawings, and his works can be found in the collections of leading museums such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Whitney Museum of American Art and Museum of Modern Art. He has had over 250 solo exhibitions around the world and continues to be acclaimed. In 2022, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum opened a major retrospective of his art.

"Olympic Swimmer (Maravell 86)" USA, 1976 Screenprint in 5 colors
By Alex Katz
Located in Toronto, Ontario
With a lifetime of work that is adored by collectors and art lovers around the globe, Alex Katz is a favorite successor of the New York-based artists that responded to Pop Art.
Born in 1927, Katz has been dedicated to art-making since the 1950s - however, it wasn't until the following decade that he established his signature 'flat' figurative style, which continues to influence contemporary painters.
Today, we can see this impact on a host of artists including Eric Fischl, David Salle, Julian Opie, and Elizabeth Peyton amongst others. One could argue that Katz kept the tradition of figurative painting alive when it had gone terribly out of style.
An active and devoted printmaker, Katz typically creates portraits and landscapes: subjects that he is personally connected to such as Soho cityscapes, the flora of rural Maine, and the people in his life.
In 1957, Katz would meet his future wife "Ada" - over the course of the last fifty years, he has depicted her over 200 times. She is the most iconic subject in his oeuvre and is depicted with affection, sincerity, and devotion.
Utilizing 5 colors, this dynamic print depicts Ada coming up for air as she swims through a body of water. Recalling Katz's 1973 painting "Swimmer #3", this work is a fine example of the artist's pared-down aesthetic, depicting Ada with few details and a striking use of negative space.
In 1976, this iconic image was extended to the United States Olympic Committee and reproduced as a poster for the Olympics in Montreal at the time.
In 2022, Katz was the subject of a major retrospective at The Guggenheim (New York) which exhibited work spanning 8 decades of the artist's career.
