Abstract Expressionism - the first American movement to have a worldwide influence - was remarkably short-lived: It heated up after World War II and was all but done for by 1960 (although visit any art school today and you'll find a would-be Willem de Kooning).

A man of eighty has outlived probably three new schools of painting two of architecture and poetry and a hundred in dress.
