Anne Truitt: Drawings

Matthew Marks Gallery

523 W 24th Street, New York, NY

Opening: Friday, February 3rd, 6:00 to 8:00 PM


This retrospective of Truitt’s works on paper spans the four decades of her career. The forty works on view date from the early 1960s, when she first developed the totemic sculptures in painted wood for which she is best known, to the last years of her life. A fully illustrated hardcover book, with an essay by Brenda Richardson, accompanies the exhibition.
