Meg Webster Exhibition
Paula Cooper Gallery "529 W 21st St."
This event has ended.
Since the mid-1980’s, Meg Webster has developed a unique body of work rooted in Minimalism, Land Art and an abiding passion for ecological systems. Webster's work brings nature and environment within the gallery, inspiring the viewer to consider the relationships between geometric and organic forms.
The exhibition will include new works on paper created through Webster’s use of natural materials. Webster coats square sheets of paper in different sizes with materials ranging from spices such as cinnamon, turmeric and cumin, to kitchen ingredients like chocolate and butter, to cement and soil to create monochromatic works. Absent of imagery, an essential aspect of Webster's works on paper is the evidence of their making. The surfaces of these works are textured and fragrant; the viewer's experience of them is immediate and direct.
