Description
The Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth presents a major exhibition of the sculpture of the acclaimed American artist Martin Puryear (b.1941) organized by The Museum of Modern Art, New York. The retrospective features approximately forty-five sculptures, following the development of Puryear's artistic career over the last thirty years. Puryear's works, often deceptively simple, can be associated with the sentiments of his Minimalist contemporaries, but his supremely quiet, poignant forms continually defy further categorization and reflect his own unique style. These often monumental sculptures are distinctly sophisticated, especially in regard to the artist’s skills as a woodworker. Puryear's Ladder for Booker T. Washington, 1996, in the Modern's permanent collection, is a visitor favorite.
