Elevate Your Space with Helen Frankenthaler’s Break Through (1956)
Experience the luminous depth of Helen Frankenthaler’s Abstract Expressionist masterpiece, Break Through (1956), reimagined for the contemporary interior. This museum-quality reproduction captures a defining moment in 20th-century art, where Frankenthaler pioneered her revolutionary 'soak-stain' technique. By thinning her paints and allowing them to merge with the raw canvas, she moved beyond gestural abstraction toward the atmospheric elegance of the Color Field movement.
A Sophisticated Marriage of Modern Art and Industrial Design
At RedKalion, we believe world-class art deserves a medium that matches its visionary spirit. This Helen Frankenthaler aluminum print is produced on premium 3mm (0.12") brushed silver Aluminum DIBOND®. The material features a distinct horizontal grain that adds a dynamic, metallic energy to the composition. While the colored pigments are applied with a matte, glare-free finish, the unprinted 'white' areas of the design remain open, allowing the natural silver sheen of the aluminum to shine through—creating a literal 'break through' of light that shifts as you move around the piece.
Archival Excellence for the Discerning Curator
This is not merely a fine art print; it is an enduring investment in aesthetic sophistication. The rigid DIBOND® base provides exceptional durability and a sleek, contemporary profile that eliminates the need for traditional heavy framing. Every Helen Frankenthaler print we curate is designed to resist aging, ensuring that the fluid veils of color and bold textures remain as vibrant as the day they were created. Each 70x100 cm / 28x40 inch panel comes complete with a tailored hanging kit, allowing this archival masterpiece to float effortlessly upon your wall.

Break Through represents Frankenthaler’s transition into the Color Field movement. It utilizes her 'soak-stain' technique, which influenced a generation of artists by treating paint as a fluid, atmospheric medium rather than a thick layer.
