The studio life of Anne Truitt is explored in the exhibition “In the Tower: Anne Truitt,” on view in the National Gallery of Art’s East Building, Tower 3. The first major presentation of Truitt's work at the Gallery, the exhibition celebrates the museum's acquisition of several major artworks by Truitt in recent years, including seminal works from the collection of the Corcoran Gallery of Art as well as several outstanding loans. Bringing together nine sculptures, two paintings, and 12 works on paper representing the different media in which the artist worked, the exhibition traces Truitt's artistic development from 1961 to 2002.
