520 8 Lee Krasner is one of the major women artists of the 20th
century. This memoir is full of first hand material based
on interviews with Krasner and with her friends, fellow
artists, gallerists, and curators. Often seen in her role
as Pollock's companion and then widow, Krasner made
important contributions to the development of American
Abstract Expressionism. Angry, outrageous, defiant, and
courageous are some of the words that describe the
American Abstract Expressionist artist Lee Krasner (1908-
1984) - the subject of this very personal memoir inspired
by Ruth Appelhof's 1974 summer with her in East Hampton,
Long Island. Best remembered by many as Jackson Pollock's
widow, she is regarded more by 'art-world insiders' as the
producer of a major body of work that influenced the
evolution of contemporary art - in particular, that made
by women in the 20th and 21st centuries. As a scholar and
a friend, Appelhof re-examines Krasner's contributions in
light of the intellectual and emotional experiences that
she so candidly shared with her in weeks of interviews. In
addition, Appelhof explores Lee Krasner's relationships
with others - friends, art-world luminaries, artists, and
other 'summer sitters' allowed into her private sanctuary
- through interviews. Those recollections will offer a
window into the artist's intense and idiosyncratic
personal life as well as into her contributions through
the groundbreaking work she produced over the course of
more than six decades.
