Frank Stella
November 24, 2015
At 89 years old, Frank Stella may be the most important living American artist. His prolific output from the mid-1950s to the present is unparalleled for its boldness in form and color.It is really hard to create iconic artwork. Think about it…can you name a few artists who comes to mind? Warhol? Basquiat? Older artists like Matisse or Van Gogh? Frank Stella!!!! When you see his artwork you just know its him and whether you like it or not, he has carved out a unique visual voice that is timeless and purely differentiated.
Ok, get out your calendar right now. The new Whitney Museum just opened a Frank Stella retrospective that is one of the most impressive exhibitions I have ever seen. Take your family and friends…this guy is a national treasure.
