Born in Chippewa City, a remote Native American village on the shore of Lake Superior in northern Minnesota, George Morrison (Wah-wah-ta-ga-nah-gah-boo and Gwe-ki-ge-nah-gah-boo, Grand Portage Chippewa, 1919–2000) overcame innumerable challenges—poverty, a life-threatening childhood illness, social isolation, racial and cultural barriers—to become a leader of the Expressionist movement, which he collaboratively Abstract defined both publicly and behind the scenes.
Morrison’s influence as an abstract expressionist painter began in 1943 when he traveled from rural Minnesota to New York City to study at the Art Students League on a scholarship. Immersing himself in the city’s vibrant cultural scenes, he studied painting and drawing, contributed to numerous exhibitions and publications, and openly challenged the mainstream art establishment of his generation.

a must mustsee in new york! such a nice and big museum to learn about history and art! arrive early though

Rockefeller Center

668***50

It is recommended to queue up at the time of the reservation ticket, and let in after the point, no need to wait; the diversion guide is well done, not too congested; the observation deck is windy and cold in May; the ticket price for watching the sunset in the evening is a bit more expensive, and make an appointment early.
