Beskrivning
A dynamic Abstract Expressionist work by Franz Kline, featuring bold, gestural brushwork in a striking palette of deep blue, teal, and white.
Blueberry Eyes is a characteristic example of the later work of Franz Kline, an American painter associated with the Abstract Expressionist movement. While Kline is widely recognised for his stark, large-scale black and white compositions, his later output often incorporated a more varied palette. This piece demonstrates his signature approach to gesture and structural form, where paint is applied with deliberate, forceful strokes that suggest architectural or industrial frameworks.
The composition is dominated by a deep blue ground, against which bold, sweeping marks in teal, black, and white are set. A vertical, textured white column anchors the right side of the canvas, providing a counterpoint to the more chaotic, angular movements that define the centre. The application of paint varies in density, with some areas showing thin, translucent washes and others displaying thick, impasto layers that retain the physical evidence of the brush. Drips and splatters are visible, maintaining the immediacy of the artist's process.
Kline's work often draws comparisons to calligraphy, yet his focus remains on the physical weight and spatial tension of the marks themselves. In this painting, the interaction between the cool blue tones and the sharp, contrasting strokes creates a sense of dynamic equilibrium. The work avoids representational imagery, instead inviting the viewer to engage with the raw materiality of the paint and the energy of the composition. It is a study in balance, where the aggressive nature of the brushwork is tempered by the deliberate placement of colour and form across the surface.

Artist Biography
Franz Kline
Kline painted black and white. Large canvases, housepainter's brushes, industrial enamel. The strokes are enormous, fast, and structural: they look like bridges, girders, railway trestles, the infrastructure of an industrial city rendered as abstract gesture. He grew up in the coal country of eastern Pennsylvania and the heavy forms of mining and railroad architecture stayed in his work.
He studied at Boston University and the Heatherley School of Fine Art in London, then spent the 1940s painting figurative work in New York. The shift to abstraction came suddenly, according to legend, when de Kooning projected one of Kline's small drawings onto a wall using a Bell-Opticon projector. The enlarged image, freed from its original scale, became something else entirely. Kline began painting large.
The black and white paintings of 1950-61 are his contribution. Mahoning, Chief, and Painting Number 2 are decisive, architectural compositions that look spontaneous but were carefully planned. He made small preparatory studies on telephone book pages and newspaper, working out the balance of black and white before scaling up. The white is not background; it is as active and deliberate as the black.
He reintroduced colour in his last years, which surprised people who had defined him by its absence. He died of heart disease in 1962, at fifty-one. The career lasted roughly twelve years. The paintings are in every major museum of modern art.
