The Magical City: George Morrison’s New York

Far from traditional representations, he fused his heritage with the raw energy of Abstract Expressionism to reinvent the urban landscape. This selection of paintings, drawings, and etchings traces two decades of bold creation, capturing the soul of a metropolis undergoing constant transformation. The event highlights the unique perspective of a creator who was able to challenge the codes of the American mid-century scene. It is a rare opportunity to observe how Morrison transforms concrete and skyscrapers into vibrant and poetic compositions, affirming his place among the masters of modernity.
