Willem de Kooning (1904 – 1997) was a Dutch abstract expressionist artist, settled in America since 1926. In the years after World War II, Willem de Kooning painted in a style that came to be referred to as Abstract expressionism or "action painting", and was part of a group of artists that came to be known as the New York School. His artistic rivalry with another painter from the school - Jackson Pollock – for the title of "Greatest Living American Artist" led to some of the best works of art that has inspired artists for decades.

About Untitled XXV
Untitled XXV is rich in scarlet, crimson and vermillion hues, as well as a radiant white that both underpins and overlays the painting’s frenetic and highly active surface. Nothing of the original underdrawing that gave rise to the work remains visible; the entire surface of the painting is a combination of fluid, thick and heavily applied brushwork. The exciting skin of the painting’s surface is a volatile mix of strokes and styles created with both the brush and by the pulling, smearing and layering technique of laying painted and paint-soaked paper, newspaper and vellum over the surface and then later sliding it off at different angles.
