Hassel Smith was a leading artist of the San Francisco branch of abstract expressionism, renowned for his joyful whiplash line but also for the central role he played in laying the groundwork for California assemblage. As early as 1948, Smith produced artworks constructed from debris washed up on the beach near his Point Richmond home, across the bay from San Francisco. The following year, he collaborated with Richard Diebenkorn and Clay Spohn to create the Museum of Unknown and Little-Known Objects, a temporary installation of pseudoscientific exhibits widely acknowledged as a germinal event for the beat assemblage movement.
