William Lumpkins
through August 15, 2010

Bill Lumpkins (1909–2000) was an architect, solar energy pioneer, author, and political activist. He was also a noted watercolorist whose interest in abstraction was influenced by Russian pioneer modernist Wassily Kandinsky. With Raymond Jonson, Lumpkins helped found the Transcendentalist Painting Group, a band of modernists whose mission was to defend and promote abstract art in the years before World War II. The exhibition was organized by the Peyton Wright Gallery in Sante Fe.
