Ok culture vultures, here are ten abstract works by a few of my favorite artists. How many can you guess correctly? Answers in the comments section. Oh yeah, none of them are by Pollock or Rothko!
the only one i knew was kandinsky. my heart sunk when i read that none of the pieces were by rothko. i totally would have guessed him for at least one.
Well no worries guys, they were pretty hard, especially 7 (de Kooning is much more famous for distorted nudes) and 8 (it's a crime that Frankenthaler-one of the most sublime heirs of the New York School-is not better known.)
ok..also..did you pick that Miro just to be difficult? Couldn't you have been nice and put one of the ones that looks like a hanging childs mobile? Cause I might have gotten one of those. And yeah, wow, been looking at a lot of Frankenthaler, amazing stuff, thanks for pointing her out.
