Paul Harris Sculpture Retrospective
View through Artsy
Paul Harris was an American Post-War Artist with a long and diverse career.
While Harris’s aesthetic complexity places him in an artistic tradition of post-war American art, dominated by reduction and simplicity, he considered the spatial aspects of his art in relation to abstraction and figuration an entry point into the complex maze of human experience.
Our view here is of 8 artworks by Harris showing his diverse use of materials and definitive subject matter.
