Abstract expressionism

edit

Although I am aware of Gino Hollander and his work, having seen it many times between 1960-1962 on Bleecker Street, (and I liked it) he really isn't a major abstract expressionist, and his participation in the New York school was marginal at best. As you've written he worked in the Village from 1960 to 1962.

The era for Abstract expressionism is more like 1945 through 1958. Pollock died in 1956, and Kline was gone by 1962, and Pop Art, Hard-Edge painting, Color field painting, Fluxus, Minimal Art and any number of other movements had swept into the New York scene. Hollander began painting those paintings at the end of the era, and then he split. I'll leave him on the other artist list. Thank you for your work on the Hollander article though..Modernist (talk) 22:11, 3 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Thanks Modernist! And, another question...

edit

Modernist, thanks for all your help! If he's not an abstract expressionist...I'm not certain what he is. I welcome you to check out some of his inventory, particularly his Universes, groups, abstracts... it appears that you are very well-versed: http://paintings.offaxis.org/ Katvaara (talk) 20:36, 4 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
