Ad Reinhardt is probably best known for his black paintings, which
aroused as much controversy as admiration in the American art world
when they were first exhibited in the 1950s. Although his ideas
about art and life were often at odds with those of his
contemporaries, they prefigured the ascendance of minimalism.
Reinhardt's interest in the Orient and in religion, his strong
convictions about the value of abstraction, and his disgust with
the commercialism of the art world are as fresh and valid today as
they were when he first expressed them.
