Woman III — Willem de Kooning

Abstract Expressionism

What to look for

Abstract Expressionism: large, abstract canvases with gestural, energetic brushwork, drips and splashes; Color Field painting, its quieter branch, uses flat, soaking expanses of colour instead.

Willem de Kooning (April 24, 1904 – March 19, 1997) was a Dutch abstract expressionist artist. Born in Rotterdam, in the Netherlands, he moved to the United States in 1926, becoming a U.S. citizen in 1962. Wikipedia
