Embraced: Yellow and Black
Jules Olitski

This is an abstract painting. At the lower center edge is a white ovoid form, formed with thick paint and surrounded by a few brushstrokes of blue. Above is another dark ovoid and atop it is a patch of vivid yellow. Other colors, washed across the surface, are blue, white, burgundy, purple and black. All of the colors and forms are bounded by a continuous “frame” of orange paint which appears to have been poured, rather than brushed, onto the canvas.

  1. After reading his bio on Wikipedia I did a search on his works. Pretty much confirmed the fact that, generally speaking, I don’t care for abstract art.
