Know the Artist: HELEN FRANKENTHALER



SEVERAL CIRCLES

Helen Frankenthaler (1928-2011) was a defining figure of mid-20th-century American art. With an extraordinary language of abstraction, she worked across sculpture, printmaking, woodcutting, and even set design, but it was her imposing paintings, replete with gestural swathes of emotive color, for which she ascended the ranks to Modern Master.

Several Circles is comprised of two loved up art professionals (and their cat, Jimmy) living and working in New York. Here, we tell the stories of seminal artists with upcoming or current exhibitions in the City. Written and hosted by Rachel, an art writer and editor. Produced by Jason, an exhibition manager.

  1. When I watched this video i was like, "why wasn't this suggested to me before?" then I saw how underappreciated your channel is. Such a polished video, good presentation too. I feel bad how underrated your videos are. I sincerely hope you get what you deserve from making such videos

  2. Thanks so much for making this. As a kid I was fascinated by Frankenthaler and her color-field contemporaries, yet with so much to explore and learn, my tastes drifted away. Now, looking at your video presentation with eyes decades older, Frankenthaler's paintings seem more vital than when I first saw them.

  3. For the quality of this video, it is criminal that it has so little views. This channel serves as a great introduction to several artists. And while its probably not done for the likes or views – more a love of history and the arts – I hope you continue to produce videos like this and the show gets more views.

  4. So from the videos you've made and looked at your channel, it's more based on more recent artists? Let's say from the late 1800s (like Mucha) to now. We won't be seeing any artist before the time range like Baroque, Neo-Classical, or academic to name a few eras. Or is that something down the line but first you and Jason would like to focus on more recent times?
