Lee Krasner — Gold or Silver
Lee Krasner

Gold or Silver

1954

Lee Krasner's *Gold or Silver* is a dynamic oil and paper collage on Masonite that showcases her bold, gestural approach to Abstract Expressionism. Torn and layered fragments of paper are woven together with sweeping brushstrokes, creating a richly textured surface that pulses with energy and movement. The composition reflects Krasner's signature ability to balance spontaneity with a strong sense of visual rhythm and structure.
