Alex Katz's large-scale paintings are noted for their restrained flat style, even light and minimalism.  We've put together a gallery of highlights of Katz's works - many of which feature his wife and muse Ada. The portraits show Katz's use of abrupt cinematic cropping and broad areas of colour which are iconic and enduring features of his work.
