Today's the birthday of Dutch-American painter Willem de Kooning (1904-1997).
His style was abstract expressionism (abstraction+vivid colors).
His work "Interchange" is the second most pricey painting globally: $343 million.
Quote: "Art should not have to be a certain way. It is no use worrying about being related to something it is impossible not to be related to.”
