  • Book Details

The abstract paintings of Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, Barnett Newman, Lee Krasner, Helen Frankenthaler and others revolutionized the art world in the 1940s and 1950s. What were these artists trying to achieve? This book traces the influence of Abstract Expressionism into the mid-1970s and examines its connection to subsequent art styles.



In addition, the book features a magisterial essay by eminent critic Irving Sandler and a copiously illustrated cultural timeline by Maurice Berger.
