Lee Krasner: A Through Line on view at the Kleefeld Art Museum

The exhibition, which will be on view at the Kleefeld Art Museum in Long Beach, CA, from February 7 - May 19, includes four of the five Krasner works in the museum’s Gordon F. Hampton Collection, together with rarely exhibited works on loan. It provides a context to explore Krasner's important abstract paintings and collages from the 1940s to the early 1960s. A Through Line specifically highlights breakthrough moments in her career, spurred on by her practice of revisiting ideas over time.
