George Cladis: Patterns of Mind

George Cladis, Tribeca Artist, was born and educated in NYC. He studied with Yasuo Kuniyoshi and Adja Yunkers. Following an outstanding career in
aeronautics/aerospace (Distinguished Fellow, College of Aeronautics), he
moved to Paris, France where he was Artist in Residence at the American
Center for the Arts and the Cité International des Arts (1969-73). Returning to NYC, he invented novel techniques to portray experiences drawn from a tightly bound immigrant community and the pre-Glasnost industrial-military complex. In 1990, his work, Atomic Dust at Dawn, won first prize at the Cultural and Heritage Affairs of Union County, NJ sponsored by Merck &Co. Then, April Kingsley wrote: a radiance bursts out of agitated, turgid, paint-encrusted surfaces transmuting Cladis' spirituality to the physical canvas that
the viewer takes back to the spiritual.
George Cladis paints the universal unconscious.
