评论： An important and highly influential abstract expressionist remembered for his large, powerful, black and white paintings, c.1949-62. He was a friend of De Kooning, whose influence was instrumental in Kline's turning from representational to nonrepresentational painting around 1946, leading to his first solo show in 1950 consisting of all abstract paintings. He was active in Provincetown, MA, late 1950s-1962.
