Claim Text
Think of Lee Krasner in the late 1950s and early ’60s, in the studio all night, teaching herself to paint with a new palette of black, white and umber, because she believed that colors could be understood only under natural light; of Alvin Baltrop in the ’70s and ’80s, wandering the decaying West Side piers with his camera, documenting the lives of runaways and cruisers, drag queens and artists and criminals (and aren’t those two sometimes one and the same); of Louise Bourgeois in the mid-90s, sketching upright in bed as she stared down insomnia and creating an astonishing 220 drawings over eight sleep-denied months.
