Description Picture of Alma Thomas' painting Red Azaleas Singing and Dancing Rock and Roll Music (1976) at the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington, D.C., in 2023. A large, three-panel abstract painting hangs on a gallery wall, composed exclusively of irregular rectangular and triangular brush strokes in a deep red color. The brush strokes are arranged like tiles that appear to be in motion together against a stark white background. The strokes are arranged densely, packed together toward the left of the painting, and spread further apart toward the right of the painting.
