Ed Clark
Painting
Ed Clark was an American abstract painter who worked with large gestural forms and bold color fields, often created through unconventional application methods including his signature use of the broom and squeegee. Active from the 1950s onward, his practice emerged alongside postwar abstraction in New York, where he developed a distinctive approach to mark-making that emphasized physical gesture and material experimentation. His work bridged gestural abstraction and color field painting, employing an expansive scale and dynamic compositional energy.
