    In the late 1940s, following the end of World War II, a group of artists living in downtown New York created an informal gathering place they called the Eighth Street Club. Conrad Marca-Relli was one of the founding members along with Willem and Elaine DeKooning, Mark Rothko, Robert Motherwell and Barnet Newman, all hailed as pioneers of Abstract Expressionism, the first internationally recognized art movement to originate in North America. Drawing on the artists’ unconscious and individual abstract styles, Abstract Expressionist painting is characterized by uniform all-over composition and significant scale. Marca-Relli’s contribution—here exemplified by Night Rider (1959) — was to raise the medium of collage to the scale and complexity associated with the painting of this ground-breaking movement.
