Helen Frankenthaler’s Paintings in Europe (Kunstmuseum Basel)

This monumental exhibition offers an unparalleled opportunity to explore Helen Frankenthaler’s immersive and atmospheric approach to color and abstraction, featuring fifty of her significant paintings. As the largest exhibition of the artist’s work to originate in Europe and her first institutional solo show at Kunstmuseum Basel, it uniquely dialogues with old master paintings through Frankenthaler’s distinctive “paraphrases.” The presentation traces her transhistorical engagement and formal innovation, providing insight into her enduring influence within modern art.
