About the Item
Following the dominant Abstract Expressionist wave of post-WWII, which decried realism in favor of non-representational forms, the second-generation Abstract Expressionists pointed the way forward. Famously declaring that painting had exhausted its possibilities and the medium’s progression was pushed to its logical end at the end of the 1950s, influential critic Clement Greenberg seemingly declared the end of Abstraction. The second generation, less concerned with expressions of inner angst like their predecessors, acknowledged the innovation of Abstract Expressionism by employing methods such as all-over composition, the emphasis on the flatness of the canvas, and the bold use of color drips and splashes.
Movements such as Hard-edge Painting, Colorfield Painting, and Lyrical Abstraction arose as a response not only to the previous generation of painters but to the aloof aesthetic nature of movements such as Minimalism and Conceptualism of the 1960s and 70s. Dan Christensen can be categorized under the umbrella of Lyrical Abstraction, which moved towards more lyrical, sensuous, and romantic abstractions that sought to reinvigorate a painterly tradition in American art.

- Phenomena Greet by Day by Paul Jenkins - Abstract Expressionist paintingBy Paul JenkinsLocated in London, GBPhenomena Greet by Day by Paul Jenkins (1923-2012) Acrylic on canvas 146 x 114.3 cm (57 ½ x 45 inches) Signed lower right, Paul Jenkins Executed in 1994-1996 Provenance: Private collection, New York (acquired directly from the artist) Stern Pissarro Gallery, London Private collection, Netherlands Artist biography Born at Kansas City in Missouri (USA), the multi-media artist, poet and playwright Paul Jenkins studied at the Kansas City Art Institute and the Art Students League in New York City. After his discharge from military service at the end of February 1946, he briefly studied playwriting with dramatist George McCalmon at the Carnegie Institute of Technology in Pittsburgh. Thereafter, Jenkins spent four years studying with Japanese American artist Yasuo Kuniyoshi in New York City. His first solo exhibitions were held at Studio Paul Facchetti in Paris in 1954 and the Martha Graham Gallery in New York City in 1956. Over the past thirty years, numerous retrospectives have been curated across the globe and Jenkins’ work can found in national collections from Europe and the United States to Israel, Australia and Japan. The diversity of his work springs from Jenkins’ wealth of eclectic influences. Some of his earliest works included what he called "interior landscapes" influenced by ancient natural forms like the caves he visited in the Ozark Mountains in his native-Missouri. Frequent student visits to the Frick Collection in New York fostered a love of the great masters: Bellini, Holbein, Vermeer, Rembrandt, de la Tour, Turner and Goya. In compliment, lingering student visits to the renowned Eastern collection of the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City evoked powerful sympathy for a monumental Chinese fresco...Category
