Helen Frankenthaler: Painting on Paper 1990–2002
Publisher: Gagosian
Measurements: 11 × 13 inches
Format: Hardcover
Condition: New
This book was published to accompany Helen Frankenthaler: Painting on Paper, 1990–2002, an exhibition held at Gagosian in Rome. The exhibition showcased eighteen large-scale works from the later years of Frankenthaler’s career, a period when painting on paper became her primary artistic focus. These pieces highlight the diverse techniques she brought to the medium, blending dense brushstrokes and varied pigment applications with her groundbreaking soak-stain method. Featuring fluid lines, dynamic washes, and bold color contrasts, these abstractions stand out as some of the most expressive works from her later period.
The book includes reproductions of the exhibited paintings, along with close-up details that capture their textures and physical presence. Archival photographs of Frankenthaler and her studio at Shippan Point in Stamford, Connecticut, during the 1990s provide additional context. It also features a new essay by Isabelle Dervaux, offering insights into the inspiration behind these works and the techniques Frankenthaler employed in their creation.
