   
Exposition. Helen FRANKENTHALER: Dark Paintings juillet 1998 - septembre 1998 USA, Washigton D.C., The Corcoran Gallery of Art "This exhibition is a concise, focused survey of an important, yet relatively little known aspect of this celebrated artist's work. Although she has been acclaimed internationally for paintings, works on paper and graphic whose expressive power depends on orchestrations of radiant, chromatic color, there has been an ongoing other side to Frankenthaler's palette. Since the beginning of her career, she has explored the aesthetic resonances that prove that "dark" pigments can result in pictures that contain "light." Extracting maximum drama not from the sunlit close-valued hues with which she is associated, but from a range of somber tones and near-monochromes, Frankenthaler has produced some of her most powerful work."
