Expressionism
By extending 1950s Action Painting to the human form, Figurative Expressionists created a viable painting mode that has outlasted Pop, Minimal, and Op Art, remaining important to the present day. This area has been a KAM Collection Initiative since 2000. Curator April Kingsley, who organized a traveling exhibition of Figurative Expressionists in 1984 for the American Federation of the Arts, received a MSU research grant in 2003 to locate additional relevant artists and prepare a KAM collection-based traveling exhibition and catalogue for 2005-2006. The show will debut at Kresge Art Museum and then travel to additional venues. The expansion will create more exhibition space as well as more storage space for these and other works in the collection.
