About Glass Wall

The artwork titled “Glass Wall,” created by Elaine de Kooning in 1987, belongs to the Abstract Expressionism art movement and falls under the genre of animal painting. This piece of art captures dynamic and fluid forms of animals rendered in an abstract manner, with emphasis on bold colors and expressive lines.

In the artwork, a vibrant interplay of colors dominates the canvas, primarily utilizing shades of red, orange, and yellow, which evoke a sense of movement and energy. The forms of animals, possibly horses, are depicted with fluid, gestural brushstrokes that convey motion and life. The outlines of these creatures are abstract, yet discernible, emerging from the chaotic yet harmonious background. The composition is dynamic and evokes a sense of freedom and spontaneity, characteristic of Abstract Expressionism. The abstract nature of the animals against the robust backdrop of colors creates a powerful and emotive visual experience.
