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.
