Jean DuBuffet, Will to Power, 1945

Alberto Giacometti, Standing Woman, 1948

Jackson Pollock, Autumn Rhythm Number 30, 1950

Pollocks appeal rests within his persona

Had strayed from social realism and surrealism 

Only way to read into politics within is in a backhanded way since it's so abstract. 

Refusal to comment- autonomy is in the process

Barnett Newman, Vir Heroicus Sublimus, 1950-1951

Lines running through coined as "zips"

Lines are sized and spaced differently, invoking a sense of ground with how they're placed. 

(Compare with Moment and his placement of tape) 

Mark Rothko, No 3/No 13, 1949

"Color field"- Flat expanses of color as opposed to mark making

Shapes function as performers where picture plane is a space in which they can move freely. This doesn't work for Greenberg as it's introducing other art forms to painting.

Not brought to edges because then it takes on a horizon line

Agnes Martin, The Tree, 1964

Drew presice lines freehand. 

Became about the process.
