Ralph Rosenborg
1913-1992
Ralph
Rosenborg has been called “the master of abstract expressionism of the
landscape.” Founder of the American Abstract Artists in 1936, he
developed his mature style in 1940 and achieved early fame, but is less
known today. His works are expressive, colorful and evocative; they do
not represent actual landscapes but rather what he called “remembered
sensations.” Although he painted in oil and watercolor, watercolor was
his preferred medium and with it he developed “poured” and “stained”
techniques before Jackson Pollock or Helen Frankenthaler.
