	Terry Fenton -- Morris Louis
		Morris Louis died on September 7, 1962, at the age of 49.
		Louis' accomplishments are tied to a series of "Veils" (1957) followed by an uneasy transition ("Florals," etc.), then a series of "Unfurleds" (1960), then the "Stripes" (1961): long runs of intensity and originality followed by periods of uncertainty.
		Louis seems not to have faltered after the "Unfurleds" and went straight into the Stripes, exploiting the intense palette developed in the "Unfurleds" in smaller, seemingly simpler pictures.

	Art in America: Morris Louis at Ameringer/Howard - Brief Article
		The work of Morris Louis (1912-1962) typifies the problem: a certain aura of dismissiveness seems to surround it these days.
		(Louis had been painting for many years before that, and participated in New York, along with Pollock, in David Siqueiros's influential experimental workshop of 1936.) During the last decade of his life, Louis was remarkably productive, turning out in 1960 and 1961, for example, over 100 works of the impressively scaled "Unfurled" series.
		Louis's work is emblematic and declarative: what might seem to some to be an emotional as well as a physical thinness appears to me to be an embodiment of the crispness and snap of decision.
