Art Historian Suzanne Hudson Leads a Talk on Lee Krasner / Events related to A Through Line for Women’s History Month

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.

Time: 12 p.m., March 21

Cost: Free

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.

Dive deep into the inner workings of the legendary artist in celebration of Women’s History Month. Take this opportunity to get to know some of the finest Krasner masterworks on the West Coast, including a rarely exhibited work that hasn’t been exhibited in the United States in over seventy years.
