De Kooning

“Neither American Abstract Expressionism nor Cubism had a formal program. ‘Cubism became a movement; it didn’t set out to be one.’ De Kooning, ‘What Abstract Art Means to Me’”

“Individuals who conceived, first and foremost, their relationship to art as the sole and ultimate justification for an existence that would otherwise be meaningless” (De Kooning, Yves Michaud)
