I also first met Walter Cade III - I believe it was at the Prudential in Boston, MA., but it could have been at the Cherry Hill Mall in New Jersey. I found his work to be stimulating, honest and superbly done. The kind of work that you keep looking at and remembering. Just now relecting and remembering Walter and his masterful work. I miss not doing shows with him and other artist friends, especially being with Walter at the Washington Square outdoor art show that we both did for many many years. I will always have very fond memories of my dear friend, Walter Cade.

We are Canadians living in Toronto. Met the artist in Chicago in the 70's and fell in love with his work, consequently purchased a painting at the time. It has hung on prominent walls in three of our homes. Over these many years, I have tried to find info on Walter and to find more of his work. I have been successful until recently. Does anyone have info to share?

Just researching this artist. Was given a large piece thru deceased estate. Looks like snowy winter street scene, very dark browns. Is this typical? art isn't dated.
"Windows"
Frank Slojkowski (01/12/2008)
I and my then wife-to-be, Pat, saw Walter's work at an exhibit at the Cherry Hill Mall in -- oh, gosh, it has to be around 1966/67 or so. A piece he titled "Windows" was getting a lot of attention. (This must have been his windows-and-walls period.) I purchased it and it hung on my fiance's wall until we were married. It now hangs on a prominent wall in our New Jersey home and each time I look at it, it recalls for me some very fond memories.

Walter and i go back at least a dozen incarnations...The day i met him 44 years ago in this reality...I was at an Art show on the miracle mile in Manhasset, Long Island,N.Y. across the street from him...My side was lonely with no one passing by...So i upped and joined him...And the friendship blossomed...We have exhibited together many times own each others work! And i can say he is one of my most important friends. His work in what ever creative endeavor he goes is "REAL" and full of great introspection on many,many layers...I am so very proud to share this life with such a GREAT SOUL...Blessings Zak Zainine.

I met Walter Cade in the early seventies. I represented him in a small gallery that I ran for a short while out of my home. I only represented two artists, Walter Cade iii and Charles Lasssiter. I own six Cade paintings, which I love and proudly display. I met Walter a few of years ago at an art show in the Hamptons, I am pleased to say he looked and seemed to be doing very well.
