Willem de Kooning (April 24, 1904 - March 19, 1997) was a Dutch-American abstract expressionist artist born in Rotterdam. He moved to the United States in 1926 and became a U.S. citizen in 1962. De Kooning is best known for his contributions to the abstract expressionism movement following World War II, characterized by emotional intensity and a focus on the act of painting. He was part of the New York School alongside notable artists like Jackson Pollock and Mark Rothko. A retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art in 2011-2012 solidified his status as a prominent figure of the 20th century.
