Lawrence Fine Art is pleased to present this wonderful work by one of the original “Women of Abstract Expressionism” Charlotte Park. “A gifted painter and natural colorist,” the Critic Roberta Smith called her “as good as” many of her peers of the period. She was less well-known than some, perhaps because she took a backseat to her husband, the artist James Brooks. She and he built a studio in East Hampton and spent much of their careers there.

CHARLOTTE PARK (1918-2010) Charlotte Park’s important contribution to the Abstract Expressionist movement during its early years has recently been acknowledged. Writing in the New York Times, just before Park died in late 2010, Roberta Smith called Park “a natural painter and a gifted colorist,” whose “ascension into the ranks of widely known Abstract Expressionists” was probably too late for her to witness. Overshadowed by the attention given to the work of her husband, James Brooks, Park kept a low profile over the course of her career, while painting some the strongest and most brilliantly colored canvases of her time. Her art is a strong case against the idea prevalent from the 1950s onward that women were incapable of the muscularity and confidence necessary to be action painters.

Reposted from @berrycampbell CHARLOTTE PARK. Born in Concord, Massachusetts, Park studied from 1935 to 1939 at the Yale School of Fine Art. She met James Brooks while working at the Office of Strategic Services in Washington, D.C. during World War II. The two moved to New York City in 1945, where Park studied privately with the Australian artist Wallace Harrison. Brooks and Park soon became part of the circle of Jackson Pollock and his wife Lee Krasner. They rented a studio space that had been occupied by Pollock in NYC, and then joined Pollock and Krasner on Long Island. They stayed first in Montauk, but after their studio was destroyed by a hurricane in 1954, they moved to The Springs, East Hampton, which became their full-time residence. In the late 1950s, Park explored collage, concurrently with her contemporaries Krasner and Conrad Marca-Relli.
