Provenance: the artist, Sag Harbor, NY; private collection, New York. Born in 1926, in Pleasantville, NJ, painter Frank Wimberley studied with James Porter, Loïs Mailou Jones, and James Wells at Howard University. While a student, he also played jazz and later developed friendships with musicians such as Miles Davis, Wayne Shorter, and Ron Carter in New York, who informed his creative sensibility. In Grass, Wimberley shows an early interest in political and social references in his torn paper collages, before his more characteristic abstract expressionist compositions.

      Feb. 17, 2009

      FRANK W. WIMBERLEY (1926 - ) Untitled.

      Est: $10,000 - $15,000

      FRANK W. WIMBERLEY (1926 - ) Untitled. Collage and acrylic on heavy torn paper, 1972. 840x736 mm; 33x29 inches. Signed and dated in white crayon, lower right. Provenance: the artist; private New York collection. Born in Pleasantville, NJ, Frank Wimberley, a New York abstract painter, has worked frequently in collage. The artist has said that his use of found papers, objects and torn paper was influenced by the physical qualities of collage Picasso and Tàpies utilized in their works in the late 1960s and 70s. The artist has infused the formal qualities of abstraction with a tension from the torn and accidental edges of the paper and cardboard. Wimberley had a solo exhibition at Spanierman Gallery, East Hampton, NY in 2008, and has had recent solo exhibitions at the Islip Art Museum, June Kelly Gallery, New York and Heckscher Museum, Huntington, NY. His works are found in the permanent collections of the Islip Art Museum, the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture and the Yale University Art Gallery.
