About the Item
Jack Bush (1909-1977) is Canada's most successful abstract artist of the 20th century.
Bush was a graduate of OCAD (Ontario College of Art & Design) and a key member of Painters Eleven.
Unlike his contemporaries, Bush would achieve an unrivaled level of success in New York and beyond after being praised and guided by esteemed critic Clement Greenberg.
As a result of their interactions, Bush would become friendly with several of the artists affiliated with the color-field movement including Jules Olitski and Kenneth Noland.
Unlike some of the other color-field artists, Bush only realized a small number of prints during his lifetime.
This work "Friday Morning", dating from 1968, featuring an unusual yet pleasing color combination, is both iconic and exemplary of Bush's style and palette.

Jack Bush
Jack Bush is Canada's most successful abstract artist of the 20th century.
Bush was a graduate of OCAD (Ontario College of Art & Design) and a key member of Painters Eleven. Unlike his contemporaries, he would achieve an unrivaled level of success in New York and beyond after being praised and guided by esteemed critic Clement Greenberg. As a result of their interactions, Bush would become friendly with several of the artists affiliated with the Color-Field movement including Jules Olitski and Kenneth Noland.
While many of his contemporaries explored the creative possibilities of printmaking, Bush only realized a small number of prints during his lifetime. His work Yellow Mark, dating from 1971, is evocative of Bush's style from the early 1970s. Several similar works from this era were on display in 2016–17 at the McMichael Canadian Art Collection as part of the exhibit "Jack Bush: In the Studio."
