"Willem
de Kooning began his artistic career early apprenticing to commercial
art firm in the Nethlerlands at the age of 12. He received his training
from the Rotterdam Academy of Fine Arts and moved to New York in 1925.
He shared studio space with Arshille Gorky in the early 1930’s, gaining
exposure to the Surrealist movement. After World War II, de Kooning
gravitated toward Abstract Expressionism under the guidance of Adolph
Gottlieb. After successfully leading the development of the movement
with his dynamic painting, de Kooning turned toward clay sculpting late
in his career."
