About the artist -
A painter and master printmaker, Will Barnet is known for his strong compositions that feature children, women and animals in both domestic and dreamlike situations. His early work was strongly influenced by Social Realism, depicting the hardships of Depression-era life. After joining the Art student League as a printer, Barnet’s work moved into a Modernist period—his domestic interiors interspersed with geometric abstractions often associated with the Indian Space Painters. As he moved through various styles and movements, Barnet maintained a highly skilled, enigmatic technique that went on to influence an entire generation of artists including James Rosenquist and Cy Twombly.
Barnet’s work is held in over 200 museum collections around the world, and he has been the subject of many major solo exhibitions and retrospectives including the Museum of American Art of the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, the National Academy of Design Museum, the National Museum of American Art, and the Montclair Art Museum, among others. He taught at a number of institutions, including Cooper Union and Yale University. Barnet was a member of the National Academy of Design and the American Academy of Arts and Letters, and a fellow of the Royal Society of Arts in London. In 2011 President Barack Obama awarded Barnet a National Medal of Arts and in 2012 he was given the insignia of Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters by France.

Will Barnet
At the beginning of his career, Will Barnet was known for his figural depictions of domestic scenes. But, as he continued to stylistically develop, Barnet arrived at abstract geometric paintings far removed from his original career. A part of the Indian Space Painters group, Barnet was inspired by Native American art in creating these divergent images. Throughout his career, Barnet oscillated between representational and abstract paintings, never fully settling on one. He has received the National Medal of Arts in 2011, and his work has been displayed at the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Museum of Modern Art, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
