What is: Abstract Expressionism? | HENI Talks
Вставка

- ‘By now, you and I know what we mean when we say it. But it certainly hasn’t defined anything. If you take the Abstract Expressionists and try to break down the difference between [Barnett] Newman and [Jackson] Pollock, let’s say, where are you other than that big loose loophole called Abstract Expressionism?’ - Lee Krasner
Barbican Curator Eleanor Nairne explores the commonalities and divergences between the artists we have come to know as Abstract Expressionists. What is the underlying connection between these works that seem so different in terms of colour, form, idea and material? Nairne unpacks the term paying critical attention to the work of Lee Krasner, a painter who refused to settle on a ‘signature image’, a uniquely identifiable style and mode of working which was so important to her contemporaries like Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko and Franz Kline.

Love their work, I tried the painting straight to the raw canvas,it does a beautiful effect but it's very hard to work.the abstract expressionist brought something daring and deep.
Thank, this helped me so much with my art project now I have so many ideas.❤
Such a superb summary 👍😀
never liked the pieces produced from abstract expressionism, but the creation process and context about those pieces is really what made it interesting for me
Eleanor is fantastic. Regards Jacek Pokrak
Neat
could there be such a thing as abstr expressionist literature ...... or even a.express. non fiction ?
in poetry, the surrealist movement had automatic writing and exploration of dreams / abstraction as their fundamental working process. so yeah, there's a link between a poet like Robert Desnos and Mark Rothko or Pollock. I highly recommend Paul Eluard, luvely surrealist poetry.
