About
Why this artist matters now
John Levee was an American painter and sculptor working in abstraction during the postwar period. His practice centered on color relationships and geometric form, developing a distinctive vocabulary of abstract composition. Active from the mid-twentieth century through the early 2000s, Levee's work engaged with the formal investigations that defined postwar modernism.
