| Paul Jenkins (born 1923 in Kansas City, Missouri) is a U.S. abstract expressionist painter. In 1948, he came to New York where, on the G.I. Bill, he studied at the Art Students League with Yasuo Kuniyoshi (4 years) and with Morris Kantor. In the early 50s, he achieved prominence both in New York and Europe for his early abstractions. His first solo exhibition in New York was in 1956 with the Martha Jackson Gallery. As of 2007, he continues to work in acrylic on canvas, as well as watercolor on paper. His work is found in international museums and collections including The Whitney Museum of American Art, the Guggenheim Museum and the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden of the Smithsonian Institution, the National Gallery and the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C., the San Francisco Museum of Art, the Carnegie Museum of Art, Pittsburgh, Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris, the Fondation Maeght in Saint-Paul, in France, the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam and the Tate Gallery in London. | ||||||||||
