Story / Additional InfoExperimental Trial Proof / horizontal orientation (edition is vertical) Current Exhibition in Postdam at the Museum Barberini 2022- Background: Following World War II, a new generation of artists turned their backs on the styles of the interwar period: Instead of figurative representation or geometric abstraction, painters in the orbit of Abstract Expressionism in the US and Art Informal in Western Europe pursued a radically impulsive approach to form, color, and material. As an expression of individual freedom, the spontaneous painterly gesture gained symbolic significance. Large-scale color-field paintings created a meditative space for ruminating the fundamental questions of human existence.
