Leonard Nelson had a career as a prolific artist and influential art educator that spanned more than half the twentieth century, from the thirties to the nineties, and forged close links with the leading artists and movements of that time in American art history.
Although he spent most of his life in Philadelphia, his roots were in New York. His works were exhibited in the forties and fifties at the Betty Parsons and Peridot Galleries, and at Peggy Guggenheim's Art of This Century (showing 500 of 3419 characters). |
