He may have shared their interest in monumental scale (at times) and flat planes of color, but his work diverges in important ways from that of the abstract expressionists and even the New York School. I don't mean to nitpick, but in an era completely overshadowed by this one style, it's important to point out incredibly innovative artists like Thompson, who followed their own vision and as a result have been marginalized by the art historical canon.

I have the photograph of Bob in the "wicker chair". Something he found on the street. Also, their wedding pictures and quite a few more. I cherish them. I saw Charles at the Whitney opening, but I don't he remembers me. Would be nice to hear from him. Elaine Plenda 80 N. Moore St. 13D, NYC 10013 Bob Thompson was married to my sister, Carol,who
