Mehrbach Pictorial History
1979 - 1982
These were difficult years for Carl Mehrbach. He had just graduated with his MFA in Painting from Boston University. His mentor, Philip Guston, died in 1979. Unsure of his direction, and how he was going to make a living, Mehrbach's Art, and his life, went through major transitions. During this time Mehrbach lived and worked in Brighton, Massachusetts, so it is often referred to as his "Brighton Period."
