 Gilbert-Rolfe has shown in New York fairly regularly since 1970, and sporadically elsewhere.Regarding the general consensus that describes his work as "Geometric Abstraction," Gilbert-Rolfe says he wishes people would think about what he does with the category rather than how his work fits into it.He says he went to an exhibition at the Tate Gallery in London in 1963 to see the Pop art that was in it but what caught his attention instead, causing him to decide he needed to go to America, were the paintings of the New York School and especially and specifically Barnett Newman's "Vir Heroicus Sublimis" (1951).
