Painting
Byron Browne was an American abstract painter active in the postwar period. Working primarily in oil on canvas, he developed a geometric vocabulary informed by Constructivism and Cubism, creating compositions of interlocking planes and muted chromatic fields. Based in New York, Browne was part of the mid-century American modernist movement.
