Photographs by Maurice Berezov and Mark Patiky
In photographs taken over a 25-year period, Lee Krasner is seen as a distinctive personality, both before she met Jackson Pollock and after his death.
When she was a student of Hans Hofmann in the late 1930s, her classmate Maurice Berezov (1902-1989) photographed the vivacious young modernist in her Greenwich Village apartment/studio.
In 1956, soon after Pollock's death, Berezov portrayed a wistful, reflective Krasner in the couple's East Hampton home, and in Pollock's former studio, which would soon become hers.
Ten years later, Mark Patiky (a relative by marriage) recorded Krasner in the studio painting Portrait in Green. The series is a colorful and dynamic counterpart to Hans Namuth's famous photographs of Pollock in action.
