I had just commented that I recently came across the work of Minnie Pwerle. An aboriginal painter that passed in 2006. I had never heard of her even thought I was familiar with aboriginal painting. I found her work to be very contemporary. You can see her work at http://www.minniepwerle.com.au/
I've seen a little of her work through friends in Australia that collect Aboriginal work. Thanks for the link...I look forward to seeing more of her stuff.

Franz Kline (1910-1962) is often pigeonholed as a "black and white" painter. Above is a selection of work by the Ab-Ex master in which color merges with gesture and at times takes center stage.
The hell with them all. Paint yourself out, through and through, it will come by you alone. You must come to terms with your own work not with any other being. -Eva Hesse detail The Brooklyn Museum is currently showing Eva Hesse Spectres 1960 and some of the images included in this post will be on view.
