Current Exhibitions

Main Gallery: Guillermo Kuitca: Diarios (November 8, 2012 - December 9, 2012)
Guillermo Kuitca: Diarios will be the first U.S. museum exhibition of a selection of paintings made from 2005 to the present. Since 1994, Kuitca has taken failed and discarded canvases, stretched them over an abandoned table from his parents’ garden, and then spent periods of time ranging from three to six months creating intentional and accidental doodles, drawings, and recordings on their surfaces.

Drawing Room José Antonio Suárez Londoño: The Yearbooks (November 8 – December 9, 2012)
This exhibition will include a selection of notebooks (also referred to as “yearbooks”) dating from 1997 to the present. Works will be taken from the Colombian artist’s ongoing project in which he creates a daily drawing based on a book or series of books that he reads over the course of a year. Loose drawings excerpted from José Antonio Suárez Londoño’s sketchbooks will be exhibited alongside notebooks and select source books in vitrines.
