About (Profile/Biography):

Lee Krasner, a well-known American Abstract Expressionist Painter, was born in Brooklyn. American artist Lenore "Lee" Krasner became well-known for her work in abstract expressionism. She received particular acclaim for her collages. Although her success as an artist throughout her lifetime was overshadowed by her wedding to Jackson Pollock, there was a major overlap in their conceptual approaches to art. Between the two, Krasner's approach, which was influenced by artists like George Bridgman and Hugo Hofmann, was more structured, especially when depicting the human anatomy. Pollock's approach, on the other hand, was less structured and more instinctive. Each significantly influenced the other's artistic output during their time together. Krasner, a native of New York, lived most of her life in several regions of the city.
