Giorgio Cavallon (1904 –1989) was a founding member of the American Abstract Artists and a pioneer Abstract Expressionist.
In 1936, Cavallon joined other
like-minded artists in founding the American Abstract Artists group.
This major movement of abstract art in America began in the 1930s
with a strong direction toward an emphasis in structural quality in
art. Juan Gris statement sums up the movement: Artists have thought
to produce a poetic effect with a beautiful model or beautiful
subjects. We on the other hand believe that we can produce it with
beautiful elements, for those of the intellect are certainly the most
beautiful.
