Hans Gustav Burkhardt (1904 - 1994)
Hans Burkhardt was born in Basel, Switzerland in 1904, emigrating to New York in 1924. Upon his arrival to New York, he became associated with the pioneers of what was to later emerge as the New York School, Arshile Gorky and Willem De Kooning. He shared Gorky's studio between 1928 and 1937. His unique role as an important American painter is affirmed by the constant interest and continuing reassessment afforded his work.
