Timeline

1913

Samuel Felrath Hines Jr. (November 9, 1913 – October 3, 1993) was an African American visual artist and art conservator.

Hines served as a conservator at several institutions, including the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, D.C., and his paintings can be found in the collection of the Smithsonian American Art Museum.

Born in Indianapolis, Indiana, in 1913, Hines began studying art in 1926 after receiving a scholarship for youth classes at the John Herron School of Art Saturday School.

1931

After graduating Crispus Attucks High School in 1931, Hines worked for the Civilian Conservation Corps and later as a railroad dining car waiter for the Chicago Northwestern Railroad.

1940

His work moved from semi-abstract landscapes in the 1940s and 1950s to geometric abstracts.

As Hines became more influenced by American modernists, such as Stuart Davis, Ad Reinhardt, Josef Albers, Ellsworth Kelly, and Barnett Newman, he began to eliminate line from his compositions, focusing instead on simple shapes and a restrained color palette.

His works are included in several collections, including the Smithsonian American Art Museum and the Museum of Fine Arts Houston.

He is commemorated by a State Historical Marker, installed at Crispus Attucks High School by Indiana Humanities in April 2023.

1945

In 1945, he began his formal art training at the Art Institute of Chicago.

After deciding to concentrate on design, Hines moved to New York City, where he worked as a fashion designer and studied at New York University and the Pratt Institute.

1963

In 1963, Hines joined a club of sixteen African-American artists called Spiral, which had been formed by Romare Bearden.

Spiral was a loosely structured group of black artists, ranging in age from twenty-eight to sixty-five and in style from minimalism to realism, who sponsored an exhibit of black and white artwork for symbolic reasons.

Despite his involvement with the group, Hines wanted his imagery to remain universal and not to be seen as having relevance exclusively to black social causes or to African Americans.

As a result, he refused to participate in the Whitney Museum of Art's landmark exhibition Contemporary Black Artists in America.

His work has been associated with the De Stijl movement often containing strong design elements, inspired by Cubism and the simplicity of Piet Mondrian.
