Conveyance

Garth Greenan Gallery is pleased to announce Ralph Humphrey: Conveyance, an exhibition of paintings, collages, and drawings at 529 West 20th Street. Opening on April 2, 2015, the exhibition is the artist’s first since 2012. Seven of Humphrey’s thickly impastoed abstract paintings will be on view, as well as a selection of collages and preparatory drawings, many of which have never before been exhibited.

The exhibition focuses on the Conveyance paintings, a singularly important, emotionally fraught body of work, created between 1974 and 1977. The paintings—hulking masses of casein and modeling paste in blacks, blues, and purples—often loosely resemble actual objects, like packages or containers.

Garth Greenan Gallery is pleased to represent the Estate of Ralph Humphrey.
