Ian Maclever, modernist depiction of approaching storm, watercolor, 1950, 24x36", original frame with artist's Remarque.
Ian Tennant Morrison MacIver (pronounced "Mac-Kee'-ver") was born May 22, 1912 in Aberdeen, Scotland. He studied architecture at Columbia University from 1935 to 1941, becoming an American citizen in 1941. In 1939 he designed the rose garden at the World's Fair in New York.
From 1941 to 1942 he did cartographic work for the U.S. Army map service, and from 1942 to 1944 he was an instructor in drawing, painting, and topographic drafting at the University of Massachusetts. After some time doing logistics work for the Navy in Washington, D.C., as well as town planning and landscape architecture, he returned to the University of Massachusetts, where he became artist in residence.
He died in 1962 at the age of 49.
