Quien es Maxwell Gordon?

Meet what I think is early Maxwell Gordon, found on Artnet: Lower New York, 18.25 x 24 inches--undated.

Born 1910, d. 1982, Gordon lived in  Chicago and New York before moving to Mexico, where the culture clearly transformed his work. 

Six works from Mexico reside in the home of American artist and expat Annette Nancarrow, now the Tlacopac residency in Colonia Los Alpes, south side of Mexico City.

The only information on Gordon aside from listings on Artnet and Mutual Art concerns a monograph produced by Karlsson Wilker.

Gordon, dining Room, Nancarrow residence/Tlacopac. 

"The house was built by renowned architect Manuel Parra for American born painter and jeweler Annette Nancarrow, who lived here for some years with her second husband, Arkansas-born Mexican citizen Conlon Nancarrow (who invented the avant garde compositional technique of music for prepared piano.). Annette, a painter, was the only assistant to the great Mexican muralist José Clemente Orozco actually permitted to work on his murals. She also designed jewelry for Friday Kahlo and Peggy Guggenheim, among the innumerable great US, Mexican, and world artists who visited and worked in Mexico roughly between the two world wars." (From residency text).

Perhaps a transitional painting when Gordon first arrived in Mexico? Quien es Maxwell Gordon?
