Best known as a member of the then radical Bay Area Figurative Painting Movement of the 1950s, Paul Wonner’s (1920-2008) career stretched over six decades and had a significant second act twenty-five years after he first emerged.  Wonner, with his longtime partner and fellow painter, William Theophilus Brown, were equally radical in their personal life, living openly as a gay couple beginning in the 1950s, a period when queerness and homosexuality were socially shunned and illegal under the law.

Wonner’s early works were largely abstract, a result of his attending UC Berkeley for his MFA, which he earned in 1954.  Later categorized with Brown as part of the “bridge generation” of the Bay Area Figurative Painting Movement, Wonner’s transition from abstraction to figuration began in 1954 and was going fully in that direction in 1955, at around the same time Richard Diebenkorn’s Berkeley paintings began evolving away from gestural abstraction though Diebenkorn is considered a first generation artist. 

Wonner’s work was included in the historic 1957 exhibition Contemporary Bay Area Figurative Painting, curated by Paul Mills at the Oakland Art Museum, which later travelled to the Los Angeles County Museum of History, Science, and Art; Dayton Art Institute; and the Colorado Springs Fine Art Center.  Wonner’s explorations of figuration continued well into the 1960s, however by the end of the decade they had yielded a series of compositionally spare still lifes, featuring a few objects painted at a small scale on large canvases. 

The 1970s initially found Wonner searching for a new direction in his work, as can be seen in the series of surrealistic watercolors he made that are loosely connected to literature and poetry.  However, by 1976 had found his next major series in the large-scale still life paintings of contemporary objects in acrylic, which were inspired by Wonner’s love of 17th century Dutch still life painting.  Wonner would paint these celebrated works for the next twenty-five years. 

The turn of the millennium also brought with it a transition by Wonner to working primarily on paper in acrylic, watercolor, and gouache.  Among the important series in the final decade of Wonner’s life, is a group of intimate watercolors depicting the artist working in his studio with models, titled The Youth and Old Age Series.  Other series include Bathers After Cezanne, and many works depicting friends, strangers, and dogs in parks around San Francisco.  Paul Wonner died in San Francisco in 2008.

All sales of works from the Estate benefit The Paul Wonner and William Theophilus Brown Endowment Fund at the Crocker Art Museum, which supports projects relating to emerging artists or lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or questioning, and intersex (LGBTQI+) artists. Proceeds go to the acquisition, care, exhibition, scholarship, and publication of art by emerging and LGBTQI+ artists, along with related public programs.
