Where it came from
This monograph serves as an essential documentation of the work of Paul Jenkins, an American abstract expressionist renowned for his unique technique of pouring acrylic paint onto canvas to create luminous, cloud-like veils of color. Published in 1964 by the Guy Pieters Gallery, the volume captures a pivotal moment in Jenkins' career as he gained significant international recognition for his departure from traditional brushwork in favor of fluid, controlled spontaneity.
The publication was designed to provide a comprehensive look at the evolution of Jenkins' aesthetic during the early 1960s, a period when his work was deeply influenced by Eastern philosophy and the concept of controlled chance. By highlighting the interplay between gravity, pigment, and surface tension, the book offers insight into the intentionality behind his seemingly ethereal forms, serving as both an exhibition record and a scholarly resource for mid-century abstraction.
