Abstract expressionism generally conjures images of explosive, large-scale canvases dripping with paint, epitomized by the works of Willem de Kooning, Franz Kline, and Jackson Pollock. In this context, the quiet reveries of Edward Corbett seem an anomaly. A pioneering force in the West Coast branch of the movement, Corbett was highly unusual in his concentration on exquisitely subtle drawings in the early 1950s. Certainly, none of the artists associated with abstract expressionism explored the velvety medium of charcoal as thoroughly as he did.
