Roger Brown "The American Landscape"
DC Moore Gallery
This event has ended.
Roger Brown (1941-97) was a leading member of the Chicago Imagist group who created bold canvases and sculptural objects that explore the American scene in the postwar era. This exhibition is the first major show of his work in New York City in over a decade. It includes paintings representative of his three-decade career from the late 1960s to the late 1990s, featuring iconic landscapes and cityscapes of urban architecture, suburban tract housing, undulating hills, and ominously patterned skies. The exhibition is accompanied by a catalogue with an essay, “Message and Murmurs from the (Broken) Heartland,” by Robert Storr.
