CBS Sunday Morning
The beauty of Provincetown, Massachusetts inspired many works by one of the most renowned American artists of the 20th century: Helen Frankenthaler (1928-2011). A series of works that the abstract expressionist painter created on Cape Cod is on view in an exhibit called “Abstract Climates,” at the Parrish Art Museum in Water Mill, Long Island. Correspondent Rita Braver talked with co-curator Elizabeth Smith, and with the artist’s step-daughter, Lise Motherwell, about Frankenthaler’s unique style.

Abstraction is too often used to excuse poor execution and lack of training. Design, color, balance, composition, shape, form, rhythm, line, mass, subject, etc… are the foundations of skillful picture making (the language of art). Imaging a musician who doesn't know what a note or melody is, or a writer who can't string together a sentence or paragraph. We would NEVER call those endeavors great works of art.
Ugh turpentine and kerosene…imagine the smell!!!
My favorite part was when the lady listed all the colors hahahahahahaha
I enjoy her remarkable Works😘. Well done und thank you🌷
I never have understood how Frankenthaler or Pollok's or similar supposed artists' work is considered art. I've tried, but to me, it's just not art.
Love

I Truly Love other Abstract Artists" It's like only we get and understand each other 💁
This is the first time ever that I just can't see this is art.

super art 111
Meh. Frankenthaler would loathe having her paintings reduced to pictured situations such as feeling a cool breeze on hot summer day. But today very few gallery people know how to talk about abstraction, lost is interest in the meaning of process for Frankenthaler's generation, and how it shaped their use of color and line. Instead, too many gallery people (sellers and tour guides) make use of the same trite color descriptions that commercial wall paint companies use in an effort to rope in customers who "don't get" color field abstraction, rendering each color patch as a sign/symbol for an everyday experience… which only leaves non-art people more befuddled.
Artists do not "try". They either do or not do.
That’s not art
Meanwhile I’m uploading my fiction for free. 🙄
