Abstract Expressionism has long been bound up with the careers and lifestyles of about 12 white male artists who exhibited in New York in the 1940s. This text reconsiders the history of the movement by investigating other largely-ignored artists - people of colour, women, and gays and lesbians.

The Abstract Expressionist movement has long been bound up in the careers and lifestyles of about twelve white male artists who exhibited in New York in the 1940s. In this book Ann Eden Gibson reconsiders the history of the movement by investigating other artists - people of color, women, and gays and lesbians - whose versions of abstraction have been largely ignored until now.

(Judith Godwin: Style and Grace examines the stylistic evo...)
Judith Godwin: Style and Grace examines the stylistic evolution of one of this country's most gifted abstract painters. Godwin's move from Virginia to New York in the early 1950s coincided with the emergence of the New York School spearheaded by Willem DeKooning and the influential teacher Hans Hofmann, with whom Godwin studied. Ann Gibson explores Godwin's struggle to break away from the dominant "masculine" and existential values of the painters of the time toward an embrace of rich and complex color relationships, surface embellishment, and gracefully-curving forms. She also describes the influence of Zen philosophy, nature, and architectural design on Godwin's vibrantly hued, spatially open compositions of the 1980s and 1990s.
