Katherine Porter
American, 1941 -
The work by the contemporary artist Katherine Porter is most often associated with geometric abstraction. Porter’s expansive, gestural paintings and works on paper articulate a formal exploration of values and forms. Deeply influenced by political movements of North and Latin America, she distills a wide breadth of references into dynamic and active compositions that evoke historical art movements that emerged from social agendas, such as European Constructivism and Futurism.
