Adolph Gottlieb: Gravity, Suspension, and Motion: Paintings 1954–1972

Adolph Gottlieb

Adolph Gottlieb worked his passage to Europe when he was seventeen, after studying briefly at The Art Students League. Gottlieb made his solo debut in 1930. In 1935, he became a founding member of “The Ten,” a group of artists devoted to expressionist and abstract painting. Eight years later, he would become a founding member of another group of abstract painters, “The New York Artist Painters,” that included Mark Rothko, John Graham, and George L. K. Morris.
