Franz Kline no number 1962

Robert Frank's "Franz Kline no number" (1962) is a contact sheet of photographs depicting the Abstract Expressionist painter Franz Kline in his studio. The contact sheet format, common in the 20th century, offers a glimpse into Frank's photographic process. The image is a testament to the interplay of light and shadow, capturing the artist in the act of creation. Frank's interest in the relationship between abstract art and the human figure is evident in this intimate portrayal of the artist.
