NEW YORK.-One of the preeminent collections of Abstract Expressionism, The Muriel Kallis Steinberg Newman Collection was given to The Metropolitan Museum of Art in 2006, contributing significantly to the Museum’s holdings in modern art. To celebrate the gift, Abstract Expressionism and Other Modern Works: The Muriel Kallis Steinberg Newman Collection in The Metropolitan Museum of Art — on view from September 18, 2007, to February 3, 2008 — will present 63 works assembled by one of the most prescient and astute collectors of the mid-20th century.

Included in the roster of important paintings in the exhibition are: Jackson Pollock’s Number 28, 1950, a supreme example of the artist at the height of his career; Attic (1949), a key work by Willem de Kooning from the 1940s; Franz Kline’s Nijinsky (1950), the artist’s first painting in his mature style; an early signature work by Clyfford Still; and Mark Rothko’s glowing No. 3 (1953). Also featured are major works by slightly younger American artists working in the early 1960s, such as Morris Louis, Kenneth Noland, and Claes Oldenburg. In addition, the Newman gift includes fine works by European modernists, such as Max Ernst’s 1924 portrait of Gala Eluard; a 1927 Joan Miró from the Circus Horse series; a 1930 relief by Jean Arp; and Alberto Giacometti’s bronze sculpture The Forest (1950).

The women serie is fantastic but during 1945-50, he got a big influence of Pollock.<br /> Take a look on the artist<br /> <br /> http://www.gillesjaques.com<br /> <br /> Find a contemporary artist to which we could associate his style and technics.<br /> If you can't find an association to other artist, call a gallery right now to promote him.<br /> Truly yours,
