Description
The Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth presents a special exhibition of twenty-five paintings by Susan Rothenberg. The Modern's Chief Curator, Michael Auping, and the artist have identified a select group of paintings that span the artist's career-from the early horse paintings of the mid-1970s, to her most recent body of work, which explores a number of central motifs that have occurred throughout the artist's 35-year career. Auping comments: "Rather than focusing on Rothenberg's famous early horse paintings as the beginning of a symbolic, figurative evolution, we are looking at the artist's work from a more holistic, formal standpoint, identifying her unusual way of organizing pictorial space, regardless of the figurative content." Each painting in the exhibition will highlight key compositional strategies in a formal narrative where perceived movement, fragmentation, and painterly gesture establish a dynamic interaction with the edges and frames of her canvases. The exhibition is organized by the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth in conjunction with the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum, Santa Fe.
