Francesco Clemente Exhibition
Mary Boone Gallery (Midtown)
This event has ended.
Mary Boone Gallery presents an exhibition of recent works on paper by FRANCESCO CLEMENTE.
The exhibition presents a sampling of contemplative work by Francesco Clemente. Created over four years and across four continents, the forty-four works span a breadth of media: from watercolor to ink to pastel.
At once variegated and integrated, the exhibition occasions reflection on the impact of Clemente’s physical location on his work, disclosing the extent to which his nomadic lifestyle informs his selection and treatment of medium and image.
In particular, the exhibition illustrates how the mystical traditions of India and Brazil
continue to nourish Clemente’s work, as they counter his keen-yet-subtle sense of irony.
