November 9, 2007 – February 7, 2008: Alan Saret: Gang Drawings marks the first major museum exhibition of Saret's work in 17 years.
Saret was a vital part of the Soho alternative art scene in the late 1960s and 70s, as well as an important figure in the history of process art and post-minimal art.
The exhibition will focus on the artist’s “gang drawings,” made from fistfuls (“gangs”) of colored pencils swept across the page, spanning from the 1960s to the present.
Organized in close collaboration with Saret himself, the exhibition will feature never before seen work drawn from the artist's own archive.
Each of the drawings featured here, are part of Saret's Gang Drawings. |
