Joan Mitchell Eine Entdeckung der New York School

The first solo exhibition and publication on Joan Mitchell (1925 -1992) in Germany now allows us to discover an artist whose life's work with its anarchistic conception, urge for freedom and energy-filled gestures and colors is every bit as compelling as that of her male peers. Between 1950 and 1955 Mitchell, as a recognized member of the Abstract Expressionist circle, found her own independent abstract pictorial language, which she continued to develop further. Artists including Franz Kline and Willem de Kooning were amongst her closest friends. She moved to France around 1960, where she translated her encounters with nature into triptychs of sometimes monumental proportions. The timeless motif of her painting is always life in its purest form: as movement, transformation, constant action, reaction and observation. The publication includes works from important American and French collections as well as from the Joan Mitchell Foundation, New York.
