1915- . US painter associated with the New
York school of action painting. Borrowing
from Picasso, Matisse, and the Surrealists,
Motherwell's style of Abstract Expressionism
retained some suggestion of the figurative.
His works include the `Elegies to the Spanish
Republic' 1949-76, a series of over 100
paintings devoted to the Spanish Revolution.
Born in Aberdeen, Washington, Motherwell
studied art in California and at Harvard and
Columbia universities.
