Dreishpoon:Helen Frankenthaler

The book "Dreishpoon: Helen Frankenthaler" offers a deep insight into the artistic work of Helen Frankenthaler, one of the most significant figures in 20th-century abstract art. With her innovative approach to painting and materiality, she creates images that pulsate with vibrant colors. This work brings together nearly fifty of her most important pieces and showcases the world's largest private collection of her works, displayed at the newly opened Reinhard Ernst Museum in Wiesbaden. Frankenthaler's unique "Soak-Stain" technique, where paint seeps directly into the unprimed canvas, results in a distinctive, flowing pictorial effect. The images not only express her artistic willingness to take risks but also testify to her ability to create large-scale, radiant paintings that remain highly relevant today.
