Helen Frankenthaler Painting History Writing Painting

Helen Frankenthaler: Painting History, Writing Painting (New Encounters: Arts, Cultures, Concepts) by Alison Rowley
English | 2008 | ISBN: 184511518X, 1845115198 | 256 pages | PDF | 2 MB
This extraordinary examination of the work of ""color field"" painter Helen Frankenthaler overturns assumptions about the artist, whose work has been burdened by its label as ""the bridge between Pollock and what was possible"". Trained as a painter, Alison Rowley brings a keen eye to Frankenthaler's paintings, returning to the fore, the artist's debt not only to Jackson Pollock, but also to Cezanne, and speculating for the first time as to her artistic responses to wider political events, in particular the Rosenberg trial. Making a fascinating case, too, for the connections between the ""breakthrough"" work ""Mountains and Sea"" and Lily Briscoe's painting in Virginia Woolf's novel To the Lighthouse, this beautifully written book provides crucial new insights into Frankenthaler's practice, as a painter who is also a woman.

This timely new series, with eminent art historian and cultural analyst Griselda Pollock as series editor, brings together major international commentators and also introduces a new generation of emerging scholars.
