Description
Bio: William Ronald (1926-1998) painter and journalist whose abstract expressionism influenced an era in Canadian art; he was the catalyst who organized Painters Eleven, the first abstract painting group in Canada. Ronald’s gift lies in his work's spontaneity, dynamism and energy and in his natural talent for handling paint. These lithographs are from Ronald’s “Mink Hill Suite” named after a mound of earth near Fergus Ohio (where the artist grew up), and serve as a nostalgic walk down memory lane. Ronald had many solo exhibitions with the Dresdnere Gallery, Mirvish Gallery, Jerold Morris Gallery and Christopher Cutts Gallery in Toronto. In his later years he had many museum exhibitions, including sponsorship from the Art Gallery of Ontario.
