Early Paintings

Garth Greenan Gallery is pleased to announce Nicholas Krushenick: Early Paintings, an exhibition of paintings, collages, and drawings at 529 West 20th Street. Opening on September 4, 2014, the exhibition is the artist’s first since 2011. Nine of Krushenick’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. The exhibition will open in advance of the artist’s highly anticipated, full-career retrospective, Nicholas Krushenick: Electric Soup (2015, Frances Young Tang Teaching Museum and Art Gallery, Skidmore College).

The exhibition offers a detailed view of Krushenick’s work from 1961 to 1963—the period during which the artist first developed his signature “pop abstract” style, with works such as Sterling Moss at the Esses (1962), Rousseau Giving Love and Lions (1962), and Turn Back Columbus (1963).

Garth Greenan Gallery is pleased to represent the Estate of Nicholas Krushenick.
