For the month of September, Karin Clarke at the Gordon is proud to present one of Oregon's finest and most expressive visual interpreters - Carl Hall (1921 - 1996). Hall was featured in the 1940s in life magazine and referred to as an American Magic Realist for his lush and detailed oils of the Willamette Valley.
We are pleased to offer a selection of his paintings from the 1950s and 1960s. The subjects range from nudes to abstracted landscapes.
"When you see all the paintings together - all the parts of speech - you see the idiom of the artist: a lot of wind, a lot of fog, a lot of the model against the window."
/ Carl Hall / May 31, 1994
