Description

These colorful steel and Plexiglas sculptures weredisplayed alongside equally colorful brush, ink, and paint works on newsprint. In these little known works on paper, black outlines of figures are filled in with blocks of color like stained-glass windows. Despite having been created more than 50 years apart, the formal and conceptual link between the colored works on paper from the 1950s and the recent Plexiglas sculptures is undeniable.
