Paul Reed (1919-2015) was born and raised in Washington, DC, and was a seminal member of a group of artists working in 1960s Washington, DC, which came to be known as the Washington Color School. His art bridged the end of the first generation of Washington Color School artists including Gene Davis, Thomas Downing, Morris Louis, Howard Mehring, and Kenneth Noland; and a second generation of Washington, DC colorists including Alma Thomas, Anne Truitt, Sam Gilliam, Kenneth Young, and Lou Stovall. Reed was a gifted artist, teacher, and a major contributor to the golden age of painting in the nation’s capital during the 1960s.
