A Survey

Gary Snyder Gallery is pleased to announce its inaugural exhibition, Nicholas Krushenick: A Survey, an exhibition of paintings, collages, and drawings at its new location at 529 West 20th Street. Opening on September 22, 2011, the exhibition is the most comprehensive presentation of Krushenick’s work in almost twenty years. Fifteen of the artist’s brilliantly colored, abstract paintings will be on view, as well as a selection of collages and preparatory drawings, many of which have never before been exhibited. A 140-page monograph—Krushenick’s first since 1972—will accompany the exhibition, with contributions from John Yau, Tom Burckhardt, Kathy Butterly, Mary Heilmann, Thomas Nozkowski, and David Reed.

The exhibition and its accompanying publication offer a retrospective view of the artist’s work from the 1960s to the 1990s—from the loose geometries and web-like forms of early paintings such as Turn Back Columbus (1963) to the artist’s groundbreaking experiments in “pop abstraction,” as seen in works such as Battery Park (1965), Fire Fade (1971), and Grand Entrance (1987).

Gary Snyder Gallery is pleased to represent the Estate of Nicholas Krushenick.
