Pure colours, smooth surfaces and fine lines: these elements characterise the famous portraits and landscapes by the legendary Alex Katz (1927). In the 1950s, he developed his minimalist aesthetic as a reaction to abstract expressionism. He proved an important precursor of Pop Art and, as a painter of modern life in American culture and society, he became one of the most important American painters of the 20th century. Working closely with the artist, museum Voorlinden will present a major survey of his work in the summer of 2023.
