Etching and carborundum // Helen Frankenthaler's Parets is a limited edition etching and carborundum print from 1987. The piece exemplifies her abstract expressionist style, using texture and minimal color to create an organic, earthy composition. The central forms, resembling plant-like structures or fossilized impressions, are etched into the surface with deep, textured lines. The reddish-brown tones against a light background evoke a sense of raw, natural material, while the abstraction leaves the forms open to interpretation. The work conveys a quiet energy, inviting viewers to explore its tactile quality and contemplate the balance between natural and abstract forms.

What is abstract expressionism?
Abstract Expressionism is an art movement that emerged in the United States during the 1940s and 1950s. Characterized by large, abstract canvases, the movement emphasized spontaneous, expressive brushwork and the use of color and form to convey emotion rather than represent reality. Artists like Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, and Willem de Kooning are key figures in this movement. Abstract Expressionism marked a shift in the art world, making New York City a center of the international art scene.
