Living a life dominated by tragedy and despair, Arshile Gorky nevertheless became one of the most important abstract 20th-century artists. The art critic Harold Rosenberg wrote that Gorky was "an artist in exile for whom art became a homeland". (Baigell 139)

Born Vosdanig Manoog Adoian in Turkish Armenia, Arshile Gorky had a happy childhood in his small village but became an Armenian refugee during World War I. He escaped the Turkish slaughter but became a refugee in Russia with his mothe (showing 500 of 6829 characters).
