MOMA's Abstract Expressionist Exhibit @ AGO, Photographer Siskind

I saw New York’s Museum of Modern Art’s Abstract Expressionist exhibit at Toronto’s Art Gallery of Ontario. These artists were influenced by surrealism, World War II and the Holocaust. They felt a need to create a new and expressive art that chronicled the doubt of the post war environment. Although the exhibit is primarily paintings, I particularly enjoyed the gelatin silver prints by U.S. photographer Aaron Siskind (1903-1991). Siskind was considered by many to be the father of modern photography. His work was based on shapes, textures and tones (value, gray scale) making abstract compositions. His photos were not an indication of the world; they were photos of torn billboards and textured surfaces where subjects were not significant.
