Timeline
William Baziotes (June 11, 1912 – June 6, 1963) was an American painter influenced by Surrealism and was a contributor to Abstract Expressionism.
Born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to Greek parents Angelos and Stella, Baziotes was raised in Reading, Pennsylvania and began his formal art training in 1933 at the National Academy of Design in New York City where he graduated in 1936.
He studied with Charles Curran, Ivan Olinsky, Gifford Beal, and Leon Kroll.

Baziotes taught through the Federal Art Project in from 1936-1938 and worked on their WPA Easel Project from 1938–1940.
In the 1940s he became friends with many artists in the emerging Abstract Expressionist group.
Although he shared the groups' interest in primitive art and automatism, his work was more in line with European surrealism.
Later in his career he taught extensively.
Baziotes and his wife Ethel, whom he married in 1941, lived in the Morningside Heights area of northern Manhattan until his death from lung cancer in June 1963, five days before his 51st birthday.
During his lifetime, he and his wife shared a love of ancient Greek art and sculpture as well as the poetry of Charles Baudelaire.
Many of his paintings are inspired by the latter's poetry as well as by ancient art.
Some of his famous works are Aquatic, Dusk, and The Room, all of which are in the Guggenheim Museum in New York.
His first solo exhibition was at Peggy Guggenheim's Art of This Century Gallery in 1944.
In 1948, Baziotes, Mark Rothko, Robert Motherwell, Barnett Newman and David Hare founded the Subjects of the Artist School at 35 East 8th Street.
Well attended lectures there were open to the public, with speakers such as Jean Arp, John Cage and Ad Reinhardt, but the art school failed financially and closed in the spring of 1949.
He later taught at the Brooklyn Museum Art School, People's Art Center, the Museum of Modern Art, and at the City University of New York, Hunter College and New York University in Manhattan during the last ten years of his life.
