Биография

Franz Kline, from the coal region of Pennsylvania, trained as an illustrator in Boston and London before settling in New York. Around 1950, inspired by projecting his small brush drawings onto a wall, he developed the large black-and-white abstractions that made him famous: broad, architectural strokes that suggest bridges, rail lines and city structures. In the late 1950s he reintroduced colour. He died at 51, leaving a compact body of work. On the market the iconic black-and-white canvases of 1950 to 1959 are the core and appear rarely, while drawings and studies on telephone-book pages trade regularly in the tens and low hundreds of thousands. The gap between these two tiers makes Kline a selective market at the top.
