James Edward Brewton (1930-1967) was an American painter and printmaker who attended the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine
Arts and exhibited works in Philadelphia and in Denmark. Brewton's early works are said to be expressionist and his later
works incorporate graffiti and the influences of "pataphysics." His life was cut short by suicide at the age of 37. The collection
is arranged in four series: I. Personal material; II. Artworks; III. Books and audiovisual materials; and IV. Artifacts and
memorabilia.
