Motherwell's greatest goal was to use the staging of his work to convey to the viewer the mental and physical engagement of the artist with the canvas. |

He preferred using the starkness of black paint as one of the basic elements of his paintings. One of his more well-known techniques involved diluting his paint with turpentine to create a shadow effect. Robert Motherwell: New Work 1989 at Knoedler & Company presented a choice selection of his recent paintings and collageshighly experimental work of emotional depth. We featured the stunning yellow and deep blacks of the acrylic on canvas works from this series in a handsome catalogue and advertising documenting the show and his Greenwich, Connecticut studio. "Wherever art appears, life disappears." Robert Motherwell |
