"You fat f___!" exclaimed Katzenberg at one point, echoing a sentiment not uncommon in Hollywood but usually muttered behind...
...Angeles’ Museum of Contemporary Art. This collection of the artist’s works is an invaluable glimpse at the deeply personal process of thinking, creating, and discovery that lies at the core of de Kooning’s legacy.
