Maker/Artist
Stout, Myron
American painter, 1908-1987
Abstract painter's work formed a bridge between Abstract Expressionism and Minimalism. His mature works often eliminated or radically reduced the use of color in his renderings of geometric forms. He showed with the Stable Gallery and the Hansa Gallery in New York. He was awarded a Guggenheim grant in 1969. In 1977 a retrospective was mounted at the Contemporary Arts Museum in Houston. His work is in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art, and the Carnegie Institute Museum of Art.
