BookPal × TalezoHelen Frankenthaler
This catalogue documents an exhibition of large-scale paintings by Helen Frankenthaler made between 1960 and 1992, opening in spring 2026 at Gagosian’s West 21st Street gallery. Throughout her career, Frankenthaler pushed beyond the boundaries of easel painting to create extraordinary, monumental works, some of which occupied the entire expanse of her studio floor. This exhibition explores the artist’s use of scale across four decades of painting. The title is derived from a 1975 review by poet and critic Barbara Guest, where she remarks on Frankenthaler’s “astonishing combination of freedom with restraint, extravagance with discipline, suggestion and definition,” concluding, “the moment becomes the distance.” The book includes a new essay by art historian Ara H. Merjian that discusses the works in the show in the context of Frankenthaler’s Surrealist and Abstract Expressionist influences.
Helen Frankenthaler (1928–2011) has long been recognized as one of the great American artists of the twentieth century. A member of the second generation of New York-based postwar abstract painters, she is widely credited with expanding the possibilities of abstraction through her invention of the soak-stain technique, and her highly personal references to figuration and landscape.
