'Robert Motherwell is unquestionably one of the most significant American artists of the twentieth century. Like the other Abstract Expressionists, Motherwell rejected conventional realism. Instead he was interested in exploring a reality that went beyond the recognizable image. Motherwell had a particular fascination and preference for working with paper. He also felt that his involvement with printmaking was just as important and vital to his work as his collages or paintings on canvas. Motherwell's first major retrospective was held at the Museum of Modern Art in New York in 1965. Since then, he has been honored with retrospectives by the Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo, New York, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and the Guggenheim Museum in New York, among many others.' {source: askart} (Key Word Search: Helen Frankenthaler, Franz Kline, Willem de Kooning, Mark Rothko, Barnett Newman, Hans Hofmann, Adolph Gottlieb)
