Frank Stella, born in 1936 on May 12, is considered one of the most famous post-American war painters but works with many other different mediums outside of paint, such as aluminum, cardboard and even 3D-printing. He began painting boats and cars, later using his creativity to make art when he moved to New York in his 20’s. His work is highly abstracts and saturated in different colors, textures, and patterns. Oddly enough, his work began with minimalist ideas and focused on basic lines and minimal colors. As time went on, he explored new ways of creating. He began as a leading figure in the Minimalist art movement and later became known for his irregularly shaped works and large-scale multimedia reliefs. When I look at Frank’s newer works, it makes me feel excited and joyous. It amazes me what feelings can come from abstract works like these.
