Gladys Nilsson

Garth Greenan Gallery is pleased to announce Gladys Nilsson, an exhibition of paintings at 529 West 20th Street. Opening on October 23, 2014, the exhibition is the first solo presentation of Nilsson’s work in a New York gallery since 2008. Nineteen of the artist’s densely layered, intricately detailed paintings will be on view, all created between 2010 and 2014. A fully illustrated catalogue will accompany the exhibition, with an essay by Robert Storr and an interview by Dan Nadel.

The exhibition and its accompanying publication focus on three distinct series in Nilsson’s work—Plant (2010), A Girl in the Arbor (2013), and A Walk… (2014). Paintings in each one incorporate large passages of collage, “sloppy drawings” in ink, colored pencil and gouache, as well as the artist’s trademark watercolor.
