Canadian born Rolph Scarlett was a pioneer of the midcentury American abstract art scene. The work from his early period echoes the work of Paul Klee. Scarlett moved to New York in 1933 where he found his first great patron at the Museum of Non-Objective Painting, directed by Baroness Hilla Rebay and art patron Solomon R. Guggenheim. Guggenheim would collect over 60 works by Scarlett for his collection, more than any other artist outside of Vasily Kandinsky and Rudolf Bauer. less
