Princeton University's "Black Friday" by Willem de Kooning 1945 & inspiration for an extraordinary exhibit and panel discussions on his emerging Abstract Expressionism post WWII. The Breakthrough Years, 1945-50, 3/15 - 7/26/26
Bill and I previewed this exhibit of 18 collected works from over 12 museums and collections, highlighting de Kooning's avant-garde debut at the Egan Gallery in NY 1948, an examination of abstraction and figuration. The two panel discussions held in the new museum's auditorium explored collecting the artworks and writing about them.
