Helen Frankenthaler, Gateway (Screen), 1988, 28 colour etching, relief, aquatint and stencil on TGL handmade paper mounted in a hand-patinated cast bronze screen (three panels), 205.7 x 251.5 x 172.1 cm. © 2024 Helen Frankenthaler Foundation, Inc. / Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York / Tyler Graphics Ltd., Mount Kisco, New York. Collection of Singapore Art Museum, comprising part of the National Collection of Singapore.
Running from 29 June to 25 August 2024, the exhibition introduces close to 40 of her print works from the National Collection of Singapore and the Helen Frankenthaler Foundation, New York – one of the largest to be shown in Singapore and with a spotlight on her woodcuts. In a rare opportunity to encounter these outstanding works up close, this special exhibition will explore Frankenthaler’s influential and collaborative partnership with American master printer Kenneth Tyler, who would later become a significant figure in the establishment of STPI.
Internationally celebrated as a pioneer of Colour Field painting within the Abstract Expressionism movement, Frankenthaler was also a notable printmaker who made significant contributions to the American Print Renaissance. Her 26-year-long collaboration with Tyler at his workshop, Tyler Graphics, began in 1976. It was a legendary print shop in New York that embodied many of the philosophies reflected in the STPI Creative Workshop today: a space for innovation and collaboration with artists to spark new creative possibilities in printmaking.
