Current Exhibitions/Lectures

Jean-Luc Moulène, Opus + One(Until December 31, 2012)
Opus + One is the first comprehensive exhibition in North America devoted to the work of Paris-based artist Jean-Luc Moulène.

Imi Knoebel: 24 Colors-for Blinky, 1977 (Ongoing)
Acquired for Dia’s collection shortly after it was realized, this epic cycle marks the artist’s first sustained engagement with color in its manifold guises. Color&emdash;viewed as a gift from his close friend, the German painter Blinky Palermo&emdash;was to become for Knoebel the primary agent in an ongoing exploration of the metaphysics of picture making.
