William Hubert Givler
(1908-2000)

Biography:
Givler was one of the most influential artists and teachers in Oregon. He
devoted 42 years to the Museum Art School, beginning as an instructor and then
as dean. He established the four-year degree program and secured accreditation
for the school. Givler's work was rooted in nature, primarily dealing with
landscapes or figures in environments. The freedom and vitality of his
brushwork helped convey the drama he saw in the forms of the Northwest
landscape. In later years he developed an interest in printmaking and achieved
further success in that medium.

Oil, tempera, pastel, prints (lithograph, etching)
