werner drewes was a painter, printmaker, and art teacher. considered to be one of the founding fathers of american abstraction, he was one of the first artists to introduce concepts of the bauhaus school within the united states. his mature style encompassed both nonobjective and figurative work and the emotional content of this work was consistently more expressive than formal. drewes was as highly regarded for his printmaking as for his painting. in his role as teacher as well as artist he was largely responsible for bringing the bauhaus aesthetic to america.
