Description

Marlene Clark's scholarly analysis of Willem de Kooning's six numbered Woman paintings offers a fresh interpretation of Abstract Expressionism's most controversial works. When de Kooning unveiled these canvases in 1953, critics attacked both the imagery and the artist's artistic intent, questioning his commitment to abstraction and his attitudes toward women. This book counters those objections by arguing that the Woman I-VI series functions as psychological self-portraits rather than figurative representation. Published by Academica Press, the work addresses decades of critical debate surrounding de Kooning's artistic goals and legacy, providing readers with rigorous art historical scholarship that reframes how we understand these pivotal modernist paintings and their place in twentieth-century art.

Key Features

Focuses on de Kooning's six Woman paintings and their controversial 1953 debut in the Abstract Expressionist movement.

Argues that the Woman I-VI canvases can be interpreted as self-portraits, challenging longstanding critical misreadings of de Kooning's work.

Addresses critic responses to the inclusion of figural vestiges in abstract painting and questions about the artist's artistic commitment.

Provides art historical analysis from Academica Press examining de Kooning's psychological and conceptual approach to the series.
