The Shape of Things: American Abstract Art
Rosenberg & Co.Jose de Creeft, Charles Green Shaw, Balcomb Greene, Gertrude Greene, Beatrice Mandelman, Irene Rice-Pereira, Judith Rothschild, Sonja Sekula, Esphyr Slobodkina Rosenberg & Co. is pleased to present The Shape of Things: American Abstract Art. The Shape of Things brings together nine artists working in the United States across the middle decades of the twentieth century, each represented here by two works. What unites them is a shared commitment to the formal — to color as structure, shape as language, and composition as a kind of thinking. Across painting, collage, and construction, these artists found that geometry could carry feeling, and that abstraction was not a retreat from the world but a new way of seeing it.
