Gary Snyder Gallery is pleased to announce Sven Lukin, an exhibition of paintings and drawings at 529 West 20th Street. Opening on May 24, 2012, the exhibition is the first since 1978 to present new works by the artist. Seven of Lukin’s recent paintings will be on view, alongside seven of his famed “shaped canvases” from the 1960s.
Works such as Diamond Head (1964), Trafalgar (1965), Piano Lesson (1968), and Janus (2009) illustrate Lukin’s career-long involvement with bringing painting out from two-dimensional space and into the realm of architecture.
