Label TextAl Held (1928-2005) emerged as an artist in 1950s New York at a time when the gesture and drip of Abstract Expressionism was the dominant art form. Instead, Held explored the core vocabulary of drawing and painting— sharp geometry, graphic lines, and a mostly primary color palette—to create new and infinite spatial relationships.["Paths and Edges" Exhibition]
