Lee Krasner: Color Vivo Retrospective at Guggenheim Bilbao

The Guggenheim Museum Bilbao presents 'Lee Krasner: Color Vivo', the first European retrospective dedicated to the American abstract expressionist painter. Co-produced with the Barbican Centre in London and curated by Eleanor Nairne and Lucía Aguirre, the exhibition features around 100 works, many traveling to Europe for the first time. Krasner (1908–1984), who married Jackson Pollock in 1945, was long overshadowed by her husband despite her innovative use of color and collage. The show traces her evolution from early self-portraits and cubist-influenced works to large canvases, collages, and later biomorphic abstractions. It includes pieces from her first solo exhibition at the Whitney Museum in 1973 and the MoMA retrospective in 1984, held two months after her death. The exhibition runs until January 10, 2021.
