https://www.theartnewspaper.com/feature/how-lee-krasner-was-shut-out-of-art-history.

'One of the best painting exhibitions of the year was Lee Krasner: Living Colour at the Barbican Art Gallery in London, the artist’s first major exhibition in Europe since 1965, which would have surely left many visitors wondering why there had not been one sooner. Krasner is nowhere near as well-known as her husband, Jackson Pollock, the poster child of Abstract Expressionism, and although her show garnered near universal five-star reviews, most critics could not help but pepper their copy with “Pollocks”. Krasner was once told her work was “so good you would not know it was painted by a woman”. Hopefully this travelling exhibition—now at the Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt (until 12 January 2020) and then the Zentrum Paul Klee Bern followed by the Guggenheim Bilbao—will lead to people thinking her work is so good you would never have known she was married'

MatthewSutherland https://padlet.com/sdieckvoss/ca82xc1swwefmtde/wish/1226636207 There was a lot of inflation at that time. Why? Did art as an asset class perform better than real estate, equities or bonds during the period? Why did some galleries go bust (Sam Kootz) and others thrive (Betty Parsons)? ]]> 2021-02-22 14:30:11 UTC https://padlet.com/sdieckvoss/ca82xc1swwefmtde/wish/1226636207 AndreeaIB https://padlet.com/sdieckvoss/ca82xc1swwefmtde/wish/1226771654 2021-02-22 14:52:19 UTC https://padlet.com/sdieckvoss/ca82xc1swwefmtde/wish/1226771654 Cold War https://padlet.com/sdieckvoss/ca82xc1swwefmtde/wish/1226773590 Was the propaganda of freedom of expressionism and 'americanism' any more ethical than communist propaganda? 

Did consumerism and industrialisation affect art sales? Did it effect the equality of the art market where middle class could buy art too or did the rich just get richer and buy art?]]> 2021-02-22 14:52:40 UTC https://padlet.com/sdieckvoss/ca82xc1swwefmtde/wish/1226773590 Why NY became a new Art Market Hub? valerierozbitska https://padlet.com/sdieckvoss/ca82xc1swwefmtde/wish/1226777374 I am interested in knowing why NY became a new hub for the art market; Why many dealers moved to NY; what was attractive in NY in those days?
