<div>Lynne Mapp Drexler’s "Untitled (Dark)" (1962) reflects the artist’s revered 1960s period, a formative decade recently honored in the exhibition "Lynne Drexler: Color Notes" at the Farnsworth Art Museum (May 4, 2024 – January 12, 2025).

Sin título (oscuro)" (1962) de Lynne Mapp Drexler refleja el venerado periodo de los años 60 de la artista, una década formativa recientemente homenajeada en la exposición "Lynne Drexler: Notas de color" en el Museo de Arte Farnsworth (4 de mayo de 2024 - 12 de enero de 2025). Ejecutada con óleo sobre papel, esta obra intimista muestra el enfoque característico de Drexler de superponer pinceladas cortas e insistentes en patrones densos y teselados. Aquí, sin embargo, su paleta es notablemente más oscura, evocando una atmósfera más sombría y contemplativa que sus lienzos de colores brillantes de la misma época.





Aunque de menor escala, "Sin título (oscuro)" revela la misma pincelada disciplinada y a la vez improvisada que definió los comienzos de la carrera de Drexler. Las relaciones cromáticas estructuran la composición, recordando la teoría de "empujar-tirar" de Hans Hofmann, mientras que la libertad expresiva de su trazo canaliza la influencia de su maestro Robert Motherwell. El resultado es una exploración compacta pero poderosa del ritmo, el color y el tono emocional.





Sellado por el Estate of Lynne Drexler y firmado y fechado en el reverso por la artista, "Untitled (Dark)" ofrece una rara visión de la experimentación de Drexler sobre el papel durante una década crucial de su carrera.
