Milton Avery at Riva Yares Gallery







The Milton Avery show at the Riva Yares gallery covers a large span of his career. My favorite is the "Sunburned Couple" from 1943, great skin colors. After I expressed some interest, the staff at Riva Yares gave me a few catalogs to study. From the Avery catalogues, this was the eulogy Mark Rothko gave at Avery's funeral. (click to see larger)
