A drawing of a woman on paper by Williem De Kooning. Signed in the bottom right corner.11.5x8.5 inches. Professionally mounted and framed in black ramen wood.De Kooning’s Woman series, begun in 1950 (after meeting his future wife). It owes much to Picasso, not least in the aggressive, penetrative breaking apart of the figure, and the spaces around it. Picasso’s late works show signs that he, in turn, saw images of works by Pollock and de Kooning. De Kooning led the 1950s art world into a new movement known as American abstract expressionism. “From 1940 to the present, Woman has manifested herself in de Kooning’s paintings and drawings as at once the focus of desire, frustration, inner conflict, pleasure, … and as posing problems of conception and handling as demanding as those of an engineer.” The female figure is an important symbol for de Kooning’s art career and his own life. Supplied with coa. Condition: Very good.
