Helen Frankenthaler: Drawing within Nature documents an exhibition
of Frankenthaler s sumptuous paintings from the early to mid-1990s,
many shown in New York for the first time. This catalog documents
an exhibition that focuses on Helen Frankenthaler s paintings on
canvas of the early 1990s, along with three large-scale paintings
on paper from 1995. In this period, Frankenthaler experimented with
new mediums and techniques, resulting in thickly impastoed surfaces
that recalibrate our understanding of her practice. A new essay by
Thomas Crow examines these paintings in the context of the varied
environments in which Frankenthaler lived and worked, from the
warm-toned terrain of Santa Fe, New Mexico, to her seaside home and
studio in Stamford, Connecticut. Helen Frankenthaler (1928 2011)
has long been recognized as one of the great American artists of
the twentieth century. A member of the second generation of postwar
American abstract painters, she is widely credited with expanding
the possibilities of abstraction through her invention of the
soak-stain technique, while at times referencing figuration and
landscape in highly personal ways.
