The artwork titled “Freefall” was created by Helen Frankenthaler in 1992. This abstract piece, composed of acrylic on paper, belongs to the art movements of Color Field Painting and Lyrical Abstraction. The dimensions of the artwork are 177 by 147 centimeters.
The artwork features a large expanse of deep blue, dominating the central space. Surrounding the blue are irregular, amorphous forms in dark shades, juxtaposed with lighter, more vibrant colors near the bottom edge. The interplay of colors and shapes creates a sense of depth and fluidity, inviting viewers to explore the subtleties and contrasts within the composition. The organic forms and the seamless blending of hues are characteristic of Frankenthaler’s technique, evoking a sense of movement and spontaneity.
