Charles Cajori American (1921-2013) Untitled (Two Figures at the Beach), 1989 acrylic on canvas Signed verso. Biography from the Archives of askART: The following is submitted by Katherine Tozier: Article on Charles Cajori that appeared in the Free Press Newspaper, (Colorado Springs, Co. newspaper, now defunct) Monday, July 13, 1964 A selection of drawings by Charles Cajori, noted New York artist and guest artist at the Fine Arts Center summer art school is currently on view at the Fine Arts Center. Cajori, who received his first formal art training at the Fine Arts Center in 1939, is associated with the Howard Wise Gallery in New York and teaches at the Cooper Union School in New York. He is teaching both beginning and advanced painting to summer art students at the Fine Arts Center. The exhibition of drawings, all of figures which may be termed, "abstract-expressionism," include many which have been shown recently in museums across the country and a number ,which have been reproduced in national art magazines. Cajori was described in a March 1963 article in ARTnews as the leading member of the second generation of the New York School. In the article, Cajori is credited with "revaluing" abstract-expressionism in his paintings and drawings of figures which express both orderly structure and the flux of existence. Cajori's work was most recently exhibited in a one-man show at the Henry Gallery in Seattle and at the Chicago Institute Annual. He has also had one-man shows at the Watkins Gallery in Washington DC, the Tanager Gallery in New York (which he helped organize in 1952), at the Oakland Art Museum, Cornell University and the Howard Wise Gallery. Cajori was awarded a Fulbright Grant to Italy in 1952-53, received the Distinction in Arts Award from Yale University in 1959 and the Longview Foundation Purchase award in 1962. 20"H x 22"W (sight), 21 1/4"H x 23 1/4"W (frame)
