William Gambini,

 (January 15, 1918 – January 3, 2010)  emerged as a significant figure of the vibrant New York art scene of the Tenth Street Co-Op Gallery Movement in the 1940s and 1950s alongside luminaries such as Arshile Gorky, Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, Hans Hoffman, Adolph Gottlieb, Franz Kline, and Mark Rothko. Focused on abstract portraiture, Gambini's canvases are a mesmerizing integration of form, color, and body language. His significant contributions to the art community include exhibitions at The Guggenheim Museum New York, ROKO Gallery New York, Brooklyn Museum Fine Arts School New York, and The Museum of Modern Art New York. Gambini's ventures landed at the front door of  Pablo Picasso's studio one day, where he was invited to stay. He spent time with Ernest Hemingway in a Havana bar during World War II and created watercolors for the author. Gambini's abstract expressionism won him grants from the Mark Rothko Foundation in 1975 and the Pollock/Krasner Foundation in 1999. William Gambini studied art at Brooklyn Museum of Fine Arts School New York, and Esmeralda Fine Arts School Mexico City, where he was recognized by Diego Rivera with whom he later collaborated on painting murals. Following a life marked by extraordinary accomplishments, Gambini passed at the age of 92 in San Diego, CA.




"The painting actualizes unity, spirituality, and eternity in the environment and frees and enhances the life of the self and mind, but painting is the dream".
