Item Details
Description
HERBERT GENTRY (1919 - 2003)
Untitled.

Tempera and watercolor on cream paper, circa 1960s. 356x419 mm; 14x16⅝ inches. Signed in pencil, lower edge recto and verso.

Provenance: private collection, Connecticut.

This mid-career work on paper displays Gentry's unique combination of figurative and abstract expressionism. Gentry had moved to Stockholm in the late 1960s after having lived in Paris since 1946. By the 1970s, he had a well-established career as a painter in Northern Europe and Paris. He was associated with both the influential CoBrA group of Dutch painters, including Karel Appel and Corneille, and other African American painters living in Northern Europe, including Sam Middleton and Walter Williams.
