Artist David Batchelor and Kassia St Clair, author of The Secret Lives of Colour, respond to Lee Krasner’s powerful relationship with colour at the current exhibition Lee Krasner: Living colour, currently on show at the Barbican Centre.
Described as a 'good noisy colorist', Krasner’s work is renowned for its distinctive relationship to colour, demonstrated by her varied and vibrant palette.
From the unique, jewel like abstractions inspired by the surrounding nature of her home in Springs, to the raucous hues jostling for attention in Krasner’s powerful body of work in the 60s, colour has always been an integral element of her practice.
Join David Batchelor and Kassia St Clair for a tour of the exhibition, focusing on a number of key works that demonstrate Krasner’s approach to colour.
