Jackson Pollock. <i>Number 1A, 1948</i>.1948. Oil and enamel paint on canvas, 68" x 8' 8" (172.7 x 264.2 cm). Purchase. © 2010 Pollock-Krasner Foundation / Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York

Abstract expressionists at the MoMA in NYC

wandering the rooms of paintings, I find a few fine Ad Reinhardts, a luminous painting by Philip Guston with direct relation to late Monet,  a striking Lee Krasner…   Jackson Pollock seriously dances through space in a couple of paintings …  I see a kinship between my mentor’s work and that of Norman Lewis..  dynamic work by Joan Mitchell and Helen Frankenthaler… among others…

The exhibition is up through April 25, 2011.    There's a lot to see - several visits are in order..
