This book overturns familiar assumptions about colour field painter Helen Frankenthaler that cast her as 'the bridge between Pollock and what was possible'. Alison Rowley brings a painter's eye to Frankenthaler's work, highlighting the artist's debt not only to Jackson Pollock but also to Cézanne, and speculating for the first time about Frankenthaler's artistic responses to wider political events, in particular the Rosenberg trial. Making a fascinating case, too, for the connections between the work Mountains and Sea and Lily Briscoe's painting in Virginia Woolf's novel To the Lighthouse, this beautifully written book provides crucial new insights into Frankenthaler's practice.
