WILLIAM BARNETT AMERICAN, NEW YORK, 1918-1992 STILL LIFE WITH SCULPTURE Oil on canvas Lower left signed: William Barnett; verso label: Doyle New York; verso label fragment: McCleaf Gallery, Philadelphia Catalogue note: Between 1927 and 1930 Barnett studied at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, and in the mid-1930s he taught in New York at the Art Students League and the New School for Social Research. Throughout his career Barnett has been a figurative artist, although in the late 1940s he experimented with eliminating realistic space and began using semiabstract forms to convey what he felt were substances and forces in nature. In the mid-1950s, he reduced his images to simple pictographs, although basic human shapes could still be discerned. Around 1960, however, he became dissatisfied with his attempts to unite human and abstract forms and sought a fresh approach. Starting in 1962, when he exhibited a new series of paintings that reasserted the human figure as his primary subject matter, Barnett has continued to explore themes of meditation and human relationships.
