Grey Ribbon - Ada 3-times
Alex Katz / Pioneer of Pop Art
Alex Katz is especially famous for his figurative paintings: The son of Russian Jewish immigrants, he was born in New York in 1927. As a pioneer of Pop Art, he always concentrated on the essentials and early on, he dealt with simplified forms and contrasting color compositions. His art is diverse, but always has beauty as its central theme. The artist can now look back on more than 200 solo and around 500 group exhibitions; his diverse works are part of over 100 collections worldwide. Alex Katz lives and works in New York and Maine.
Alex Katz’s wife Ada is his most important model and his muse. Katz is known for his linear and simplified portraits, which are characterized by an economy of gesture or, as the artist describes it, by the rapid passing of things. His paintings focus on the present moment, regardless of the characteristics of the portrayed subject.
His work contains numerous historical references, from Japanese woodblock, Matisse and Monet to Jackson Pollock, Degas and of course Pop Art.
