Abstract Expressionism is America’s first art style. I think that those must have been really exciting times (in the late forties and early fifties) when they were creating it, because it really captured the imagination of the world. Thanks for posting this..I liked and subscribed!

As a painter and avid art history reader, I've come to believe Ab Ex can only be grasped through Ab Ex artists' writings combined with trying to paint as such oneself. Art historians today either over-emphasize the "personal" in expression, pretentiously dismiss Ab Ex as culturally naive, and/or (oddly) refuse to come to terms with the importance of working serially for Ab Ex artists. I attended an NYC undergrad art college in the '80s, met a few of that era's standouts, they did not talk about theirs or their colleagues' work anything like art historians' today write about the movement.
