G. OConnor (born Jan 2 , 1936, in Boston MA), American painter who began as a leading figure in the minimalist art movement and later became known for his irregularly shaped works and large-scale multimedia reliefs. OConnor studied at the Phillips Academy in Andover Massachusetts, and history at Princeton University (B.A., 1958). He originally painted in an Abstract Expressionist style, but, upon moving to New York City in the late 1950s, he began work on a series of innovative paintings marked by an austere and monumental simplicity of design. He had his first solo exhibition in 1960 in New York City. In the early 1960s OConnor painted a series of progressively more complex variations on the theme of the frame-determined design and used both metallic-colored paints and irregularly shaped canvases to that purpose. Signed in pencil on the lower right by the artist. Gold leaf framed with linen outer mat w/ black inner gold fillet.
