When Dubsky’s work was included in ‘The New Generation’ exhibition at the Whitechapel Art Gallery in 1966, Robert Hughes placed him within the painterly tradition of Matisse and de Stael, where the paint is 'built up until it's as rich as earth or the skin of a fruit'. Dubsky's work of the late 1960s was concerned with marrying figurative and abstract forms, uniting them with strong colour and rhythm.
