Adolph Gottlieb "Paintings from Four Decades"
The Pace Gallery (32 E 57th St)
This event has ended.
"Adolph Gottlieb: Paintings from Four Decades" traces the continual and deliberate evolution in the artist’s work from his early to late career and reveals Gottlieb’s constant willingness to reevaluate his paintings throughout his lifetime. The eleven works on view, created between 1948 and 1972, focus on three specific series: the Pictographs, the Imaginary Landscapes and the Burst paintings. As Lilly Wei writes, “All three serve as deeply meaningful touchstones, sometimes serious in intent, other times playful, to which he returned to time and again, in one formulation or another, all his life.”
