Signed o the plate on the lower. The print suite was realized in 1985 a limited edition of 2500, and curated by Xavier Fourcade. Very Good conditions. Willem de Kooning (Rotterdam, April 24, 1904 - New York, March 19, 1997) was a Dutch-born American painter and sculptor. from 1926 he moved to the United States and during the tremendous years of the economic crisis he created frescoes on commission from the WPA Federal Art Project. During the Second World War, he became part of the group of abstract artists, formed around the numerous European emigrant painters. In 1948, with his first solo exhibition at the Egan Gallery, he established himself as one of the most prominent exponents of abstract expressionism. his artistic language matures in the context of abstract expressionism, becoming one of its most significant representatives. His canvases are the representation of a deforming and violent vision that abstracts external reality. Adherence to a realist matrix, however also found in those works where the informal appears absolute. In his artworks, the chaotic and violent lines tend to lose any definition of the structure, and new balances of relationships and harmonies of rhythm are born, constants through which he recovers the form and attributes new values to it. To this vision full of contradictions belongs the series of female images of the fifties and sixties, of dramatic and cruel reality, a constant theme of the artist. less
