Frank Mcclure 1896–1979

Frank McClure (1896-1979) remains a singular, evocative figure in the tapestry of American art, a creator whose work bridged the visceral realities of American Naturalism with the burgeoning emotional depths of Abstract Expressionism. Though he may not always occupy the same immediate spotlight as the canonical giants of Abstract Expressionism like Pollock or Rothko, McClure’s contribution is indispensable.
