American modernist, John Marin, worked prolifically in watercolor, etching and oil during a career that spanned more than 50 years. It was the medium of watercolor that encouraged him in his development of a bold, original style that is both contemporary and authentically American. Marin's improvisational approach to color, paint handling, perspective and movement situated him as a leading figure in modern art and helped influence the Abstract Expressionist movement.With contributions by Ruth Fine, Charles Pietraszewski and Christine Conniff-O'Shea.
