Mixed Media

Charles Cajori was an American painter and printmaker whose postwar abstractions employed gestural mark-making and bold color fields. Working primarily in oil and lithography, he developed a vocabulary of energetic brushwork and layered compositional planes that engaged with the formal innovations of abstract expressionism without adhering to its dominant heroic rhetoric. His work occupied a distinctive middle position between lyrical abstraction and structured geometric intervention.
