Abstract Expressionism Psychedelic Outsider Art Paul Shimon

About the Item

Born in New York, Paul Shimon (1919 - 2011) was both an accomplished artist and composer. Considered by some to be an Early Outsider artist, Shimon studied at the Art Students League of New York and with W.A. Clark Prize recipient Jean Louis Liberte (1896 - 1965). A pioneer of abstract Judaica, the influence of his studies with Jean Louis Liberte together with that of his sephardic heritage is often apparent in Shimon’s artwork. Shimon was listed amongst the Who Was Who in American Art, the reference book of cultural life in the United States. Exhibited: Audubon Artists, 1954 Macdowell Alumni Show, 1971 Skylight Gallery, NYC, 1970s. Awards: Emily Lowe Watercolor Award, 1953 Macdowell Colony fellowship, 1960.
