Shirley Jaffe was an American Contemporary Abstract artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Museum of Modern Art. Shirley Jaffe was born in Elizabeth.
Shirley Jaffe was an American abstract painter. Her early work is of the gestural abstract expressionist style, however in the late 1960s she changed to a more geometric style. This change was initially received with caution by the art world, but later in her career she was praised for the "idiosyncratic" and individual nature of her work. She spent most of her life living and working in France.
