Join us for 'Alfred Cohen:

An American Émigré in Europe' a study day! 14 June 2018 10:00 am – 6:00 pm …………………………………. Alfred Cohen (1920-2001) was an American whose art was firmly rooted in the European tradition, and who lived and worked in Europe after the war, settling in England in 1960. ……………………………………………. He exhibited successfully in London through the 1960s and 70s. His paintings and drawings are represented in numerous major national and international collections. ……………………………………………… With the return of interest in figurative painting, Cohen’s work has been sought after by collectors and museums. In 2016 the Sainsbury Centre of Visual Art acquired an important group of his pictures. ………………………………………. As Cohen’s centenary in 2020 approaches, the study day will explore and evaluate the full range and significance of his work. It will assess his place in the Anglo-American art worlds of the time, and examine his unique synthesis of the Ecole de Paris and abstraction. ………………………………………..
