Robert Motherwell, Three Poems XV
United States  • 1915  - 1991

Presentation

Robert Motherwell (1915–1991) remains one of the most influential figures in Abstract Expressionism. His work continues to captivate art lovers and collectors worldwide, with recent record-breaking sales reaffirming his relevance in the contemporary art market. Motherwell's powerful gestural brushstrokes and intellectual approach to art make his paintings highly sought after in galleries and auctions. In 2024, his painting Apse (1980–84) achieved an impressive $825,000 at The Armory Show, highlighting the ongoing demand for his pieces in the art market.

Motherwell's art is celebrated for its emotional depth, with his iconic series Elegy to the Spanish Republic standing as one of his most profound works. His abstract compositions, often marked by bold, graphic brushstrokes, continue to define his artistic identity. In addition to his renowned paintings, Motherwell was a prolific printmaker and contributed to major art historical texts, further cementing his intellectual legacy. His connection to literature and philosophy is evident in his works, which integrate these themes alongside abstract expression.

Motherwell's recent exhibitions, such as Robert Motherwell: At Home and In the Studio at The New York Public Library, offer new insights into his creative process, featuring personal books and prints that influenced his practice. His works are regularly featured in major museums and galleries globally, ensuring his place at the forefront of the art market. Collectors continue to see his paintings as valuable investments, as Motherwell's work remains a symbol of modernist innovation.

For those looking to acquire a piece of history, Robert Motherwell's art continues to be a cornerstone of the Abstract Expressionist movement, offering a rare combination of aesthetic mastery and intellectual depth.
