Notable Art Works
Born in Washington, D.C., in 1920, Gene Davis worked as a sportswriter before his career as an artist began in 1949. Davis, a leading American artist of the twentieth century, contributed significantly to the Color Field and Post-Painterly Abstraction movements that reached prominence in the 1960s and the Washington Color School. Davis was never formally trained, which he viewed as a positive aspect that freed him from the traditional and limiting aspects of art schooling. Instead, Davis developed his artistic skills through the art institutions in Washington and regular visits to museums and galleries in New York. He also received guidance from friend, artist and curator Jacob Kainen.
