Paul Jenkins’s intuitive, chance-based painting techniques helped pioneer new approaches to Abstract Expressionism. Jenkins made his vibrant compositions by pouring paint directly onto the canvas, then tilting it so the paint dripped, bled, and pooled into fluid, diaphanous washes that resembled ceramic glazes. His palettes and methodologies can evoke the experiments of fellow abstract titan Helen Frankenthaler. Jenkins has been the subject of retrospectives at the Musée Picasso in Antibes, the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Charleroi, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. His works belong in the collections of the Centre Pompidou, the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, the Museum of Modern Art, the Smithsonian American Art Museum, the Guggenheim Museum, the Tate, and the Whitney Museum of American Art.
