Hans Hofmann
I'm not a huge fan of modern art, but there is something about Hans Hofmann that I can't get enough of! I think of modern artwork as stressful and confusing, whereas Hofmann's work is energizing and exciting.
He is remembered for his use of spatial relationships and color. I remember walking through the Dallas Museum of art and stopping dead in my tracks when I first saw "Yellow Table on Green."
