The Aggressor






 
 


A memorial exhibit for Conrad Bercovici Abbott (1945-2001) 
was held at the Westbeth Gallery. Works from out his lifetime  
were on view His paintings were evidence of a deep lifelong  
commitment to painting as a form of human expression.   



Mostly figures, his work was awkwardly drawn, things didn't  
quite fit together, but there was something else. Throughout  
this work there is a powerful brooding, a true expressionist  
voice.  His figures and faces talk to us with primitive and  
primal voices.
