Paul Cadmus, “Architect”, 1950, Tempera on Panel, Wadsworth Atheneum, Hartford, Connecticut
Paul Cadmus has participated in thirty-seven Whitney Museum Annual and Biennial exhibitions of contemporary art, making him one of the most frequently exhibited artists in the history of that ongoing curatorial project. Cadmus’s repeated, indeed almost serial, inclusion in the Whitney’s signature exhibitions of the 1930s, 1940s, 1950s, and early 1960s marks both the centrality and the longevity of this artist’s contribution to twentieth-century art.
The “Architect” was exhibited at the 1950 Whitney Annual. The model in the painting was Charles “Chuck” Howard.

This blog is a refugee and a survivor of the Great Tumblr Inquisition of December 17th, 2018. I am gay artist, who received training at the Rhode Island School of Design, and now, a retired high-end fine art framer living in Maryland, USA. My interests and studies in life run a wide gamut from art to history and from the scientific to the esoteric. I have been building this blog of images and texts for the last eight years. My wish is that my posts pique the interest of viewers and encourage them to experience more.

One thought on “Paul Cadmus”
Thank you! I like your site,which I just found and congratulate you on your passion for art. We would be a sorry lot devoid of art in our lives, and it is so good what you are doing. I am a woman who at 79 after working, raising a family, and pursuing the frustrating pursuit of good planning that put people first and profits second, I’ve embarked on a degree in fine arts. We should all be focusing on the creative benefits of art and contributing to actions involving restoration, creation, peace, fun and tolerance.
So now I draw and paint as the most important thing left to do, amd am loving the discipline of revisiting basics of realist drawing, as well as painting in a small studio in the Adelaide hills in South Australia. Just wanted to say, I love your site
