Harold Garde Art, Estate

US, b. 1923 in New York, NY - d. 2022 in New Smyrna Beach, FL.

American painter and printmaker Harold Garde, whose extraordinary achievements in Abstract and Figurative Expressionism, from the 1950s onwards, made a significant contribution to Post-War American art. 

His seven-decade career spanned the New York Abstract Expressionists’ later generation of the 1950s - 1960s; turned increasingly towards gestural abstraction into the figurative, mythic possibilities of Neo-Expressionism of the 1980s - 1990s; and remained vitally inventive late into his 90’s before his death in October 2022. 

Harold Garde’s major bodies of work in painting, drawing, and prints reveal his early and vigorous engagement with Abstract Expressionism as well as the persistent innovation of his mature artistic experimentation.
