Lee Krasner is one of the most important, but most overlooked, abstract
artists of the last century. Her vivid, large-scale canvases that explode in
fireworks of colour are stunning, but you’ll also be able to see her superb
charcoal drawings and some early self-portraits. The Barbican aims to stop
Krasner always being mentioned in the same breath as her husband (also an
artist). Being a female artist is total Pollocks.
Barbican. May 30-Sep 1. £15-£17, £11 concs.
