Frieze Masters

For the 2017 edition of Frieze Masters, Spotlight, Garth Greenan Gallery will present Inventing Pop Abstraction, a solo exhibition of works by Nicholas Krushenick. The three paintings included provide an overview of Krushenick’s work from 1965 to 1967, a time of intense formal as well as technical innovation for the artist. Juxtaposing broad black lines with flat Liquitex colors, the artist created bold, energetic compositions that combine the graphic clarity of Pop with nonfigurative shapes and forms.

In 2015, the Frances Young Tang Teaching Museum and Art Gallery, Skidmore College, hosted a full-career retrospective of the artist’s work. Frieze Masters will be the first time, however, that Krushenick’s paintings have been displayed in the United Kingdom.

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