1978

About the Item

In The New York Times Arts in America column, Edward M. Gomez writes of Valton Tyler, "visionary seems the right word for describing his vivid, unusual and technically refined paintings, prints and drawings, whose style defies convenient labels. Abstract, surreal, cartoonish, sci-fi fantastic, metaphysical, apocalyptic-Baroque - all of these fit but also fall short of fully describing his art." (Edward M. Gomez, "Futuristic Forms Frolic Under Eerie Texan Skies," The New York Times, June 13, 2000, page B2.) In 2017, the Amon Carter Museum of American Art in Fort Worth presented the retrospective exhibition "Invented Worlds of Valton Tyler."

My attention is drawn to the relationship of forms - and to unrecognizable shapes that are thought provoking and unworldly."
