Contemporary Gestural Abstraction
About
The Abstract Expressionists were the first to combine gesture with abstraction, demonstrating the action of painting by splattering, pouring, and pulling paint across the canvas. The vigorous brushstrokes of contemporary painter Judith Murray, the dynamic compositions of Korean artist Yoon Lee, and the meticulous squiggles of CalArts graduate Jonathan Lasker continue this tradition of expressive painting.
