FRANK STELLA,PAINTER &SCULPTOR

 FRANK STELLA,
b.12 may 1936
Malden,Mass
National Gallery of Art
Washington,D.C.
But, after all, the aim of art is to create space - space that is not compromised by decoration or illustration, space within which the subjects of painting can live.
Frank Stella

یک تکه از فضا 
در سایه ها ی
 یک تکه بال 
چرخ می زاند
با  یک تکه از فضا 
در سایه های 
یک تکه بال 
آفتاب پرسه می زند در ایوان چشم

THINKING OF de kOONING and HIS WOMEN

یاد د کونینگ می افتم
همشهری غربت ما
روز رفتن او .
زن های د کونینگ
در منتهای خشونت
عریان اند 
به عریانی دگرگون حجاب و
دروغ... 


willem de Kooning,the Dutch-American
New York abstract expressionit, with  one of his famous naked women
B.24 Apr 1904,Rotterdam,Holland 
-d.19 March 1997,NEW YORK
He moved to U.S. in mid 1926,and his WOMEN in two series are halmarks of his works
.'
I,m thinking of de Kooning
my fellow citizen
in exile.
de Kooning women are naked
in the extreme of violence
naked as veil and
lies
*

*
.  And you are right.He started his abstract works in middle age  and was inspired not only by Jackson Pollack,but De Stijl and Flemish Expressionists. He mixed realities with Arshile Gorky's surrealism,the Armenian-American painter who he met in 1933,and the one who in fact pioneered Abstract Expressionism..
Once his women were on exhibit in our NGA and I wrote a note in Farsi,in a Persian Publication,now defunct:
.....called Iran Khabar

MARK ROTHKO(1903-1970)

MARK ROTHKO
b.25 SEPTEMBER 1903
d.25 FEBRUARY 1970
LITVANIAN AMERICAN ARTIST
He did not want to be marked as abstract expressionist,
and although he painted abstract,
he did not want to be marked as abstract artist.either.
Mark Rothko wanted to be untitled
like his untitled artworks
in silence
as a friend reminded !

and he settled on the museums walls untitled


Here is the the untitled artist himself in silence!

JACKSON POLLOCK,ANATOMY OF AN ARTIST

 JACKSON POLLOCK,AMERICAN ARTIST,PAINTER and Action Painter,DRIPPER,ABSTRACT EXPRESSIONIST,and a symbol of AMERICAN PAINTING
b.28 JAN 1912,CODY,WYOMING
d,11 AUG 1956 in car accident,Springs,Long Island,New York
POLLOCK was influenced by PABLO PICASSO and MIRO,but more than these two,MASSON ,The French Surrealist Artist,was a great influence on him.This will not deny Pollock's originality,and or what is called ACTION PAINTING ,through his pure plastic performance,or in automaticity.That's what he phrased it as I'M NOT AWARE OF WHAT I'M DOING


ACTION PAINTING,a term coined by art critics
