Gertrude Abercrombie

1909–1977 · American

Gertrude Abercrombie was an American artist associated with Magic Realism; American Surrealism. Across Painting, the work investigates small, enigmatic paintings of solitary women, nocturnal landscapes and symbolic objects shaped by Chicago’s jazz culture. Meaning develops through the relationship between process, display and lived cultural experience rather than through a single signature motif.
