Elaine de Kooning moved to 64 Carmine Street after being evicted with husband Willem from their larger Chelsea loft. Born in Flatbush, Brooklyn, Elaine de Kooning was a star in their social circle. She was also a talented art critic, writing more than 100 articles for ARTnews magazine. In 1954, she had her first solo show at Stable Gallery. As a mature artist, she was known for her portraits of President John F. Kennedy.
Awesome
Love this! too short , wish there was a decent Doc on the De Kooning's or even a film. but have not seen some of these pics before. Awesome!
What a beautiful story, thank you.
Fascinating.
Thank you for your the upload.
How does this computer sometimes know exactly what I'm thinking about?
Eyes in the sky.
Unnecessary comments are annoying. As are some people. Maybe I am one.
The Kennedy portrait ( pictured unfinished, I hope) looks dreadful.
subjective....
Riding on the back of Willem de Kooning
🙄🤡
Some could conceivably argue it was the other way around, though I don't think either characterization would be fair.
@@sodapopbrosky GFY. ON A SPIKE
This is a bizarre coincidence, but In the past day or so I was thinking about De Kooning's wife and thinking again how she must have only been married to him for financial reasons because what did she want with such a known woman hater ( famous "monster" woman paintings) however when she first got together with him they were both young and very poor (financially speaking).Maybe she KNEW all along that de Kooning would be famous in his lifetime but it would have been easier to just get knocked up by some Park Ave.millionaire and have his kid so he would be stuck with her.
The woman paintings are beautiful. They may not be flattering from your perspective, but beautiful nonetheless. Perhaps it is you who hate women.
Wow, ignorant sexist comment!
