In the Cohen Modern and Contemporary Gallery.
Event Time: Museum Hours
TopMore than thirty small canvases from each stage of the artist's career beginning in the early sixties through 2007, the year of his death, will be featured in The Museum's Cohen Modern and Contemporary Gallery. The artist's Stain, Spray, Baroque, High Baroque and Late Orb paintings trace his exploration of abstraction through a variety of techniques, which range from ethereal to painterly.
Olitski was brought into public prominence by art critic Clement Greenberg, who coined the term "post-painterly abstraction." Olitski applied the paint by staining, then spraying, and later used unconventional tools such as brooms, mops, and leaf blowers, among other things. His richly diverse surfaces diffused color and light, often with rich variations in texture. The exhibition draws on works from the Olitski Family Estate and premiered at The George Washington University's Luther W. Brady Gallery in the fall of 2012. Artwork from this exhibition was included in an online slideshow of the "Best of 2012," which accompanied a recent article by Karen Wilkin in the Wall Street Journal titled "A Range of Revelations."
