Join OJMCHE Adjunct Curator of Special Exhibitions Bruce Guenther for a special tour of Helen Frankenthaler, Works from the Collections of Jordan D. Schnitzer and His Family Foundation.
A towering figure in American painting of the 20th century, Helen Frankenthaler (1928-2011) was one of first major abstract expressionist painters to develop a unique technique of painting that married a fluid paint process with the warp and weft of the canvas so that they became one and the same, fusing color and movement into an emotional whole. Her lyrical abstractions of sensuous color, light, and space both enlighten and enrich the viewer’s sensibilities with their unity and immediacy of effect.
