JACK HENDERSON (1931-1998)Henderson taught at the Art Students League for many years and had a studio in at 30 East 14th Street, New York City. In that building were many other artists including Edward Laning, a teacher and long-time collaborator of HendersonŐs. A Kansas City native, Henderson was the recipient of a Fulbright Fellowship and a Fellow of the American Academy in Rome. He continued the Miller/Laning tradition of travel to Italy to study the masters of the Renaissance and the goal of fine figure painting as the ultimate artistic achievement. A version of his monumental triptych, New York in Ruin, 1967, is in the collection of the New York Landmarks Commission. Work by Jack Henderson was shown at the Susan Teller Gallery, 2001.
