Jack Roth’s (1927-2004) art evolved alongside the vanguard of postwar  American art, from Abstract Expressionism through Color  Field abstraction and beyond. His artistic education was shaped by studying under legends such as Mark Rothko, Clyfford Still, and Richard Diebenkorn. His talent was recognized early when he was chosen by James Johnson Sweeney, director  of The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, for the 1954  traveling exhibition, Younger American Painters. Roth was  one of the youngest artists - just 27 years of age - whose work was selected for the exhibition which helped to introduce Abstract Expressionism to the American public and traveled to major art museums across the United States. It included many leading
artists of the day, including Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning and Robert Motherwell, many  of  whom were decades his elder.
