They said only men could paint powerful pictures, but Helen
Frankenthaler (1928-2011) splashed her way through the modern art
world. Channeling deep emotion, Helen poured paint onto her canvas
and danced with the colors to make art unlike anything anyone had
ever seen. She used unique tools like mops and squeegees to push
the paint around, to dazzling effects. Frankenthaler became an
originator of the influential "Color Field" style of abstract
expressionist painting with her "soak stain" technique, and her
artwork continues to electrify new generations of artists today.
Dancing Through Fields of Color discusses Frankenthaler's early
life, how she used colors to express emotion, and how she overcame
the male-dominated art world of the 1950s.
