ニューヨーク近代美術館のインスタグラム(themuseumofmodernart) - 7月24日 01時20分

What work served as your gateway to exploring the world of art? For Manish Engineer, a former member of our IT department, it was #FranzKline’s “Painting Number 2” (1954). Listen to him share how the artist’s process continues to inspire him today, and tell us the artists you want to see on view when we reopen this fall. #newMoMA

andreis There were brave and patriotic COLLECTORS who created a little flurry of activity on the Abstract Expressionist market in the late 1950s, but in general this type of painting was depreciating faster than a Pontiac Bonneville once it left the showroom. The resale market was a shambles. Without the museums to step in here and there, to buy in the name of history, Abstract Expressionism was becoming a real beached whale commercially. The deep-down mutter-to-myself truth was that the COLLECTORS, despite their fervent desire to be virtuous, had never been able to build up any gusto for Abstract Expressionism. Somehow that six-flight walk up the spiral staircase of Theory took the wind out of you. Tom Wolfe, The Painted Word

lawrencevoytek My old Boss Bob Rauschenberg told me a story of being at the Cedar tavern one night and he said Franz Kline had to much to drink and ask Bob if he would drive him to his studio He wanted to paint... Bob drove him and he asked Franz if he would mind if he stayed and watch him paint... Franz said sure... Bob said he watched for hours and the sun rose... sometimes When Bob was doing a under paintings Bob would tell watch me do a Kline

flat6concepts Franz Kline’s abstract reductive work has always been Inspiring to me - so much so that it inspired a whole branding scheme for one of my clients. If anyone is interested they can view the @nicolesassamanshowroom case study on our website. Cheers!

suslewis2 Thank-you. Kline was a definite gateway, a small reproduction in a high school textbook was very inspirational. Also one of Motherwell’s Elegy to the Spanish Republic pieces, in same textbook. Form, Space and Vision by Graham Collier. ❤️

_pksadventures_ Love this! The abstraction of yin and yang. The harmony of intent and spontaneity. The balance of motion and stillness. The heartbreaking truth of nonexistent light without the contrast of dark. ❤️❤️❤️ @timcengelbrecht

kathryn_eye For me it was seeing Guernica in person. The way Picasso used its size to truly convey the horrors of that day.... I think I finally "got" art in that moment
