Jan Matulka was an American painter and printmaker whose work bridged European modernism and American abstraction during the early twentieth century. Born in 1890, he developed a geometric formal language informed by Cubism and Constructivism, working across oil, watercolor, and lithography. His contributions to American modernism remain understudied relative to his influence on subsequent generations of abstract painters. He died in 1972.
