The main focus of the exhibition will be on that maverick of  modern printmaking and second-generation Abstract Expressionist, Helen  Frankenthaler (1928-2011) together with artists that inspired her and  worked alongside her. Frankenthaler came of age in the midst of the  avant-garde art scene in New York in the 1950s and grew to become one of  the most influential Abstract Expressionists. Although influenced by  first-generation artists like Willem de Kooning and most significantly,  Jackson Pollock, her own painterly style was ultimately a departure from  theirs, expanding the possibilities of abstraction and eventually  transitioning into Colour Field painting. This exhibition explores  Frankenthaler’s differences as well as similarities with works on paper  from some of the most significant first and second-generation Abstract  Expressionists, including Willem de Kooning, Robert Motherwell and  Clyfford Still, among others.
