This ground-breaking and extraordinary examination of the work of colour field painter Helen Frankenthaler overturns familiar assumptions about the artist which focus on her reputation as ' the bridge between Pollock and what was possible' . Trained as a painter, Alison Rowley brings a keen eye to Frankenthaler' s paintings, highlighting the artist' s debt not only to Jackson Pollock but also to Cezanne, and speculating for the first time as to Frankenthaler' s artistic responses to wider political events, in particular the Rosenberg trial. Making a fascinating case, too, for the connections between the ' breakthrough' work Mountains and Sea and Lily Briscoe' s painting in Virginia Woolf' s infamous novel To the Lighthouse, this beautifully written book provides crucial, and still highly relevant, insights into Frankenthaler' s practice.
