Possible Art Crit Paper Topic

Helen Frankenthaler's wood cut series Tales of Genji may very well be my art criticism research paper topic, or more specifically just the criticism surrounding the series. (God forbid that we actually critique a piece) At anyrate the spontanaity of these images belies the amount of planning that actually goes into them. If I am not mistaken she is averaging around 6 blocks per image. Each block closely examined and chosen for it's wood grain, which she then carves and then paints with watercolor. She is also using a special printing process that is designed to make the colors bleed a little bit. The paper she is using is entirely hand made and designed around the image, and is intended to imitate the color and texture of the wood blocks.
