About this Artwork

Movement: Abstract Expressionism, Bay Area Figurative Art, Post-War, West Coast Art
Provenance: The family of Everett Ellin.

Ellin opened the Everett Ellin Gallery in 1957 on Santa Monica Boulevard in Los Angeles. He showed works by California artists. In 1958, he closed the gallery and moved to New York, where he worked for blue-chip art and antiques gallery French and Company—it had recently started a contemporary art program, which was helmed by art critic Clement Greenberg. Ellin returned to Los Angeles and reopened his gallery on Sunset Boulevard in 1960, where it remained until 1963.

Material and ephemera from his collection are housed in The Smithsonian Archives of American Art and the J. Paul Getty Institute's Archives for American Art.
