"The term 'abstract' had a wide range of meanings for Kline...during the 1950s he singled out The Dancer, 1946, as his earliest abstract painting. Although more abstract than Elizabeth, The Dancer still has a hold on figurative imagery. A leg, knee to foot, may easily be identified at the lower right. Yet relationships among the few value contrasts, the articulation of the planes and the interplay between mass and space fail to coalesce. In The Dancer representation and abstraction play hide-and-seek, but neither wins" (H. Gaugh, "Kline's Transitional Abstractions, 1946-1950," Art in America, vol. 62, no. 4, July-August 1974, p. 44).
