Transatlantique – Joan Mitchell
Edited by Mara Hoberman
About
From the publisher:
Joan Mitchell (1925–1992), one of the most important artists of the post-war period, was also a uniquely transatlantic figure. From the 1950s onward, as Mitchell moved back and forth between the United States and France, her work—and the discourse surrounding it—developed across two continents, two cultures, and two languages. Invited by Mara Hoberman, nine artists based on either side of the Atlantic reflect on Mitchell’s life, work, and enduring impact.
Transatlantique – Joan Mitchell is the latest volume of the bilingual (French/English) series wherein contemporary artists share their unique perspectives on historic artists with ties to either side of the Atlantic.

You brilliantly encapsulated what all painters know: ‘What excites me as I paint, is what one color is doing to another and what they are doing in terms of space and doing to each other.’ But am I wrong in thinking that you are more interested in exploring the clash of colors than harmony?”
