Magnetic fields

expanding American abstraction, 1960s to today

Magnetic Fields: Expanding American Abstraction, 1960s to Today' introduces the work of more than twenty exceptional artists in conversation with one another for the first time. With works in a range of media, including painting, sculpture, printmaking, and drawing, the exhibition showcases a diverse range of unique visual vocabularies within non-representational expression. By highlighting these artists? individual approaches to form, color, composition, material exploration and conceptual impetus within hard-edge and gestural abstraction, Magnetic Fields provides an expanded history of non-pictorial image and object-making. The exhibition not only celebrates these artists as leaders in the field, but also the enduring ability of abstraction to convey both personal iconography and universal themes.00Exhibition: Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art. Kansas City , Missouri (08.06. - 17.09.2017).
