Adolph Gottlieb

Adolph Gottlieb was an influential American artist best known for his abstract paintings and sculptures that explore bold colors and shapes. As a leading figure in Abstract Expressionism and the New York School, he sought to evoke emotion and meaning through simplified forms like circles, lines, and fields of color. His work often combined spontaneous brushwork with structured design, reflecting a desire to connect the subconscious with visual expression. Gottlieb's innovative approach helped redefine modern art in the mid-20th century, leaving a lasting impact on contemporary artistic practices.
