Jenny Brosinski (*1984, Berlin) responds to the visual tradition of Abstract Expressionism through a radical formal reduction on large-scale paintings. Like Frankenthaler, she works on unprimed canvas. Her spontaneous, raw approach gives rise to a lightness and openness that redefines the expressive gesture.
Ina Gerken (*1987, Düsseldorf) creates works with finely tuned layers of colour that evoke atmospheric landscapes. During her residency at the Frankenthaler House at the Skowhegan School of Painting & Sculpture in Maine (USA), Gerken immersed herself in Frankenthaler’s painterly process—an influence that resonates in her sensitive approach to colour and composition.
