His style reflected the abstract expressionists from the 1950s and transitioned to a pure geometric style and total abstraction beginning in the late 1960s.Born in on the island Saint Croix, Danish West Indies in 1913. In 1919, Latimer and his family moved to New York, where they lived in Brooklyn. He studied at the American National Academy School of Fine Arts ( ca. 1944-1945) in 1948, Latimer joined the Ossip Zadkine Studio of Modern Sculpture and Drawing, a school located at Rue Notre-Dame-des- Champs in Paris. Latimer also attended the École des Beaux-Arts and stayed in Paris until the early 1950s. Latimer moved to Italy around 1956 and resided at the San Vito Romano and studied at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Rome. He became a part of a group of African-American expats artists visiting and living in Rome. Latimer moved to Positano to study and work at the Positano Art Workshop, an American art school founded by Edna Lewis in 1952 and operated by American abstract artists Randall Morgan and Eugene Charlton-Rafalsky. Latimer received training from the prominent Italian abstract artists, Angelo Savelli and Piero Dorazio who taught at the workshop during the summers. Latimer attended the school's annual exhibitions, showed at Gargiulo/Lopel Gallery. In 1967, Latimer moved to Mon, a small island in the Danish Baltic Sea. He was invited to Kerteminde in 1968 for his first Danish Solo show at the Kerteminde Library where he showcased abstract oil paintings and watercolor drawings.He debuted in New York with solo show in 1953 and has since then been exhibited in France, Italy, Germany, Denmark and Morocco. The influence of Latimer’s stay in Europe is notable in many of his works: from the lyrical and expressive style taught to him by Ossip Zadkine in Paris, the impact from the Italian Post War Avantgarde to the experimental art scene in Denmark during the 1960s and 1970s. Latimer often stated that Spanish artist Joan Miro was his most significant early influence. Latimer spent his final years in northern France and had shows in Fountainebleau and at the Ganzoni Art Gallery. Geneva, Switzerland. Shipping fees: United States/ Canada: 40 dollars.
