View in a Room

Screenprint in colors, on Arches watercolor paper. Signed, dated, and numbered. Co-published by the artist and Chiron Press, New York. Literature: Harrison 11.

Four sweeping diagonal bands of color command this luminous 1967 screen-print by Helen Frankenthaler, translating her celebrated soak-stain technique into the medium of printmaking. Green, deep blue, cream, and warm red-orange traverse the sheet in bold, softly edged passages, while a golden yellow wedge at lower left adds compositional tension. The organic fluidity of each band evokes the gestural immediacy of Frankenthaler's paintings, asserting Color Field abstraction's lyrical power on paper. Co-published with Chiron Press, New York, in an edition of one hundred with eight artist's proofs.

Helen Frankenthaler (USA, 1928–2011) was a leading abstract painter and a pioneer of the Color Field movement. Known for her innovative 'soak-stain' technique, she applied diluted paint directly onto unprimed canvases, creating luminous, fluid compositions that redefined modern abstraction.

This method, also known as serigraphy or silkscreen printing, is commonly used to produce prints on posters, T-shirts, vinyl, stickers, wood, and other materials. The process is a type of stencil printing, allowing for vibrant, detailed designs on various surfaces.

A really good picture looks as if it's happened at once. It's an immediate image.

- Helen Frankenthaler

Initially creating in the style of abstract expressionism before going on to pioneer the Colour Field movement, Helen Frankenthaler was an iconic, highly influential artist with work spanning across the mediums of painting, sculpture and printmaking. Frankenthaler was initially recognised for her colour-stain technique – the practice of applying heavily diluted oil paint onto an unprimed canvas that had been lay flat on the floor; the practice of laying the canvas flat was inspired by Jackson Pollock. Frankenthaler drew a lot of her inspiration from nature – her works would analyse natural forms and recreate them on the canvas – this, as well as the technique of laying the canvas flat, is exemplified in her most notable painting, Mountains and Sea. Asides from these paintings, Frankenthaler also received acclaim for her printmaking – Madame Butterfly is her most recognised print and was created with the use of 46 woodblocks and a range of 102 different colours.

What is abstract expressionism?

Abstract Expressionism is an art movement that emerged in the United States during the 1940s and 1950s. Characterized by large, abstract canvases, the movement emphasized spontaneous, expressive brushwork and the use of color and form to convey emotion rather than represent reality. Artists like Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, and Willem de Kooning are key figures in this movement. Abstract Expressionism marked a shift in the art world, making New York City a center of the international art scene.
