Biography
Walter Gabrielson was born in Orr, Minnesota in 1935 and moved to Inglewood, California with his family in 1953. Gabrielson
attended both Chouinard Art Institute and then transferred to the Otis Art Institute receiving his M.F.A in 1965. While still
at Otis, Gabrielson worked as a printmaker for the Fantasmagoric Print Workshop and later for the Tamarind Institute. In the
fall of 1966, Gabrielson began serving as a professor of art at California State University, Northridge and continued until
1981. During this time he participated actively in the local and national arts community. Most notably he was part of the
founding committee of the Los Angeles Institute of Contemporary Art where he served as publications chairman. In 1974, he
worked with Ed Wortz to lead an influential seminar through the UCLA extension program focusing on "The Ironic Los Angeles
Artist," which included participation from John Baldessari, Ed Ruscha, Terry Allen, Karen Carson and many others.
Gabrielson exhibited his work throughout his life, including one-man and group shows in the Southern California area, as well
as nationally and internationally. Notable exhibitions include a two-man show with James Turrell at the ARCO Art Center in
1976, "Decade, Los Angeles Painting in the Seventies" at the Art Center School of Design in 1981, and the "Collection of Michael
Blankfort" exhibition at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art in 1982. Gabrielson had an ongoing relationship with the Contemporary
Arts Forum of Santa Barbara, California, until his death in November 2008.
Scope and Content
The collection consists of drawings, photographs, and slides of Gabrielson's work as well as exhibition announcements, exhibition
reviews and written works. A large portion of the collection is made of clippings and visual materials Gabrielson used as

work to drawings created in 2008. Images from various interactions with other local artists are included as well.
