Betty Parsons & Carla Accardi

Tickets available at tinyurl.com/4nbs7fnr Betty Parsons and Carla Accardi were two influential, yet distinct, figures of 20th century avant-garde art whose works are presented together in the double-height Cathedral Gallery. Betty Parsons (1900–1982) was an American abstract painter and sculptor who also had an illustrious career as a New York City gallerist. Parsons championed Abstract Expressionism while maintaining a rigorous artistic practice creating vibrant works characterized by their bold, playful and expressive style inspired by nature. Italian artist Carla Accardi (1924 – 2014) was a pioneering force in postwar abstract art in Italy. Accardi's abstract paintings blend gestural strokes and hard-edge forms, and relate primarily to symbols and signs which are integrated into her works in her modular series and her innovative use of the material Sicofoil.
