Paul Shapiro
American, b. 1939
Paul Shapiro was born in Boston, Massachusetts on December 26, 1939. He studied at Northeastern University from 1957–1958 and then the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston from 1959–1962. In the 1960s, Shapiro was part of the Abstract Expressionist movement, but a 1970 Paris exhibition of early 20th century Expressionist painters inspired him to pursue landscape painting for the next two decades. His works were characterized by bold color and gesture. His 1982 move to Santa Fe, New Mexico crystallized his love of landscape painting. In the 1990s, he shifted back to nonobjective abstract, but influenced of the land can still be discerned in his recent paintings. Shapiro has exhibited internationally, throughout the United States and from Switzerland to Denmark. In 2010, he won the New Mexico Governor's Award for Excellence in the Art
