BYDealers Auction House Biography and Notes
At the close of the 1960s, Norman Bluhm was on the cusp of a significant critical transformation. Although he acknowledged the vital role played by the New York School artists (de Kooning and Kline in particular) in the evolution of his aesthetic, by the 1960s Bluhm had already begun to question the limitations of Abstract Expressionism. In keeping with his academic training - Bluhm had studied art and architecture under Mies van der Rohe, and then fine art at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Florence and the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris - he returned to the practice of drawing from the nude model. He also began to incorporate art-historical references into his paintings. Over the course of the 1970s, his rectilinear brushstrokes softened and coiled into curvilinear abstract female forms suggestive of the Western art-historical tradition of the reclining nude. With colours becoming increasingly saturated and titles rooted in Greek mythology, such as Aphrodite, Niobe, and Persephone, he emphasized the feminine and referenced the Classical.
