Ambrose Hallen (1886-1943) was an Australian modernist artist whose work went largely unrecognised in this country. He lived for some thirty years in France, and his work was to retain the influence of the Ecole de Paris artists with whom he was acquainted. In the late 1930s he taught painting in Melbourne.
