<h3>Who was Willem de Kooning?</h3>
Willem de Kooning (1904 - 1997) was a Dutch American nationalized painter, an exponent in the years after World War II of abstract expressionism and gestural painting.
One of his best-known works is the Woman series. In the case of the first work of this series, the author refers to Renaissance art because the expression of the woman's lips refers to Monalisa's lips, which do not have a clear expression and allow interpretation by those who contemplate her.
