Still Life 1938

"Still Life" by Lee Krasner, created in 1938, is an abstract depiction of a tabletop scene. Krasner, known for her abstract expressionist works, simplifies the forms of everyday objects, transforming them into geometric shapes with vibrant colors. The composition is dynamic and fragmented, with the elements seemingly floating and overlapping. This work demonstrates Krasner's early exploration of abstraction and her ability to capture the essence of still life objects through a modern lens.
