"the infinite range and expressive possibilities of color."
March 17 - April 30, NY
highlight, 1961
Kenneth Noland (1924-2010) is among the most influential Post- War abstract artists and one of the central figures of Color Field painting. His unprimed canvases with geometric forms painted in thin washes of pure, saturated color forged a new direction in abstract art. The artist’s stated aim was to explore "the infinite range and expressive possibilities of color." Later referred to in the New York Times as “paradigms of American plain statement,” these spare, reductive works were seen as bold departures from Abstract Expressionism and as ‘minimalist’ painting. This exhibition and extensive catalogue will present new insight into the artist’s life, his influences, and the impact American popular culture had on his art and vice-versa.
