"Alexander Liberman: After Image, Paintings and Sculpture from the 1950s" Exhibition
Mitchell-Innes & Nash (Upper East Side)
This event has ended.
Mitchell-Innes & Nash presents Alexander Liberman: After Image, Paintings and Sculpture from the 1950s, on view in the Uptown gallery . Marking the centennial of the artist's birth, this exhibition will focus on Liberman’s mid-century painting and pedestal sculpture including several works that are being exhibited for the first time in decades.
During this break-through decade, Liberman was keenly interested in exploring the negation of subject-matter and composition by eschewing any reference to traditional images in his painting. His own term for this set of ideas was “after image” which refers to both non-objective painting as well as the optical effects of looking at his work.
