Franz Klein
Franz Klein, male, American, born in 19 10, is an abstract expressionist painter of new york School.
Crane was originally a figure painter. /kloc-After the 1940s, he often discussed artistic issues with avant-garde artists such as motherwell and Pollock in new york, and began to try abstract expressionism.
He painted on the canvas nailed to the wall with low-priced and inferior pigments and the painter's brush. The brush strokes were large and rough, showing a powerful architectural structure. The painter pays attention to the texture and formal modeling of pigments, emphasizing the balance of various whites, and the sliding black brush strokes present a half-contained and half-exposed color edge. He turned the painting into a white solid structure on a black blank. Crane's paintings have the abstract expression of China's calligraphy, and pay attention to fiction and fact's brushwork tendency.
Franzke Lane's works are as energetic as Pollock's. In the 1940s, he was keen on line drawing, especially used to drawing small black and white sketches and details, in which he studied a single theme or spatial relationship. /kloc-one day in 949, he enlarged some sketches with a slide projector, which inspired him to develop his own unique style: on the white canvas, there are some large black lines, which have nothing but lines and nothing concrete. The blank in the picture is vivid with powerful black strokes, and even some flying white looks more meaningful.
When people look at his works, they can understand the meaning of "action painting". In his works, the movement of the pen is very important, which is consistent with China's calligraphy.
Whether he is influenced by oriental calligraphy or not, his paintings are consistent with oriental calligraphy in the principle of "taking white as black". Moreover, we cut off all the redundancies and only use black and white to win more with less, so as to achieve a deeper beauty-this aesthetic taste is very close to the oriental calligraphy art.
Crane's first large-scale black-and-white abstract painting was created in 1950, which is characterized by large and thick brushstrokes, but controlled by it, the architectural structure is powerful. His structure had a great influence on the constructivist sculptors in the 1960s. He began to experiment with color in the late 1950s. In the year before his death (1962), color began to play an important role in his works, but the results were not necessarily satisfactory. It seems that color is not important in his ideas expressed by composition, but just a decoration.
