Harriet Shorr



Poppy Petals
There are many characteristics to Harriet Shorr's work that are immensely appealing to viewers and critics alike: the monumental size of her paintings, their lush color and aerial viewpoint, the narrative tantalizingly suggested by the objects that form her subjects.

She is a realist who paints still-lifes with the sensibility of an abstract color field painter. In the use of her paint, Shorr is indebted to the Abstract Expressionists. In a catalogue of her work George Tomko stated: "Like Fairfield Porter and Milton Avery, Shorr is a virtuoso colorist. She shares with them the extraodinary ability to keep every element in the picture fresh, vivid, and alive."
