I watched a YouTube video “‘How to Paint like de Kooning” with Corey D’Augustine from MOMA. Lots of fun. This is the painting I made. I’m no deKooning (or D’Augustine) but I learned things and had fun.

Graham, who would become an important stimulus and supporter. He also met the painter Arshile Gorky, who became one of De Kooning's closest and most influential friends.

Huile sur papier journal transféré sur toile, 244 x 188 cm, 1955-1956, Moma, New York.
Tour de force de la gestuelle de de Kooning, le Lundi de Pâques déborde d’énergie. Les formes et les lignes angulaires se heurtent, se chevauchent et se pénètrent, tandis que le papier journal transféré, légèrement visible en bas et en haut à droite, impose une structure ténue en forme de grille. L’œuvre semble être dans un processus simultané de création et de destruction, un état perpétuel à la fois de réalisation et d’effacement qui trouve une certaine analogie dans la croissance et le déclin continus de la nature.
Nommé d'après le jour où de Kooning l'a achevé en 1956, le tableau est la plus grande des dix œuvres monumentales qu'il a exposées ce printemps-là. Le critique Thomas Hess a comparé le groupe à des "paysages urbains abstraits", le Lundi de Pâques semblant effectivement faire référence au rythme effréné et aux détritus granuleux de la ville moderne (cf. Moma).
