Larry Rivers (1923 - 2002) is a painter, draftsman and printmaker who began his career as a jazz saxophonist. After studying at the Hans Hofmann School of Fine Arts and New York University, he devoted himself to art. Rivers is known for his abstract style, and is often considered a forerunner of the Pop Art movement. His work is displayed at the Corcoran Gallery of Art, the National Gallery of Art, the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden and many other museums. When Rivers was commissioned to create a work celebrating the 1974 opening of the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, he chose to make an abstract collage depicting the building, art, and garden at the Hirshhorn --as seen through his eyes.
