李·克拉斯纳认领

Krasner created Seated Nude right around the time she began to associate with the American Abstract artists, where she met her husband, Jackson Pollock. Showing remnants of Cubism, this charcoal shows Krasner experimenting with abstraction in a fashion both raw and evocative.

he title for this piece, Gaea, is a reference to the Mother Earth goddess of Greek mythology. Krasner continued her exploration of nature-inspired, organic forms in this work, which take on a primordial quality as they flow across the canvas.
