Summary |
"Helen Frankenthaler has received international recognition since the 1950's, when, in her twenties, she emerged as a leading New York artist who played a pivotal role in the transition from Abstract Expressionism to the Colorfield painting of the 1960's. While she is perhaps best known for her radiant canvases, it is in her intimate works on paper, which are less familiar, that she first experimented with aspects of her innovative style and techniques. In this body of work can be found her initial essays with staining, an important element in her work of the 1960's, as well as the "clumps" of paint set directly on the paper surface, which figure prominently in her most recent production." -Back cover |
