1904-1948. Armenian-born US painter, who
lived in the USA from 1920. He painted Cubist
abstracts before developing a more surreal
Abstract-Expressionist style, using organic
shapes and bold paint strokes. Among Gorky's
major influences were Picasso, Kandinsky,
Miro, and Cezanne. His works, such as The
Liver Is the Cock's Comb 1944, are noted for
their sense of fantasy.
