Anne Truitt: '62'63

Matthew Marks Gallery

1062 North Orange Grove, Los Angeles, CA

Opening Saturday, April 18, 3:00 to 5:00 PM
 
The exhibition includes three sculptures and two paintings on paper from 1962 and 1963—seminal years for the artist. The three sculptures exhibited here employ a palette of whites and subtly hued blacks. The stark forms in the two paintings on paper, made over a two-month period in 1962, anticipate the radically new approach to form, color, and scale that would take root in the ensuing decade under the label Minimalism.
