About Kenneth Noland

Kenneth Noland (10 April 1924 – 5 January 2010) was an American abstract painter known for his Color Field works, although in the 1950's he was thought of as an abstract expressionist and in the early 1960's he was considered a minimalist painter. Noland helped establish the Washington Color School movement. His work was early influenced by Helen Frankenthaler and her so-called soak-method.
