Artist Bio
Born in New York City, Helen Frankenthaler studied at the Dalton School and Bennington College. She exhibited her art for over six decades and was a major contributor of postwar painting in America. Frankenthaler also helped bridge the transition from abstract expressionism to a form of painting called Color Field Art. This form of abstract art included vast canvases with flat color shapes and minimal details.
Additional Information
Aerie was created only two years prior to Frankenthaler’s death. It is a screenprint based on another piece she created in 1995 with the same title. This piece follows her love for colors and lyrical painting that she was known in her later career.
