Frankenthaler: Works on Paper, 1949-1984

Helen Frankenthaler has received international recognition since the 1950s, 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 1960s. Over the past decade, in fact, the artist's works on paper have assumed a stature equal to that of her canvases and often catch the most highly charged and vibrant aspects of her art. Her masterful use of drawing, space, and color is redefined to shed new light on her entire career.Wilkin, Karen is the author of 'Frankenthaler: Works on Paper, 1949-1984', published 1985 under ISBN 9780807611036 and ISBN 0807611034.
