Tuesday Talk: Daniel Dove
The CSULB School of Art Professor, will speak about Lee Krasner’s distinctive painterly abstraction, focusing on the umber toned gestural abstraction of What Beasts Must I Adore? (1961). This work was made during a spell of insomnia, when Krasner worked in the dark of night. Without natural light, the artist embraced the power of gesture in a much more neutral color palette. Tuesday Talks are a part of the ongoing weekly series which runs through May 2.

Art Historian Suzanne Hudson leads a talk on Lee Krasner
Art historian Suzanne Hudson, Ph.D., will discuss the innovative painterly practices of Lee Krasner. The artist’s self-critique drove a singular process of revision that carried her abstract work forward from the 1950s to1980s. Resourceful and self-directed, Krasner became an artist on her own terms. Learn more at this program, presented by Carolyn Campagna Kleefeld Contemporary Art Museum in association with Lee Krasner: A Through Line, on view through May 19, 2023.
