About the Exhibition
American artist Ellsworth Kelly (1923–2015) drew his distinctive formalist language from the world around him. From his observations emerged a surprisingly diverse body of work, ranging from figurative drawings and straight photography to monochromatic canvases and abstract sculptures that distill the effects of shape, color, and light. Comprising a selection of roughly twenty works created between the 1940s and the 2010s,
Ellsworth Kelly: Eight Decades
features key examples of the minimalist approach Kelly developed in his mature work alongside the artist’s early paintings, plant drawings, and photographs taken while he was on the East End of Long Island.
Ellsworth Kelly: Eight Decades
is organized by the Parrish Art Museum and The FLAG Art Foundation, in collaboration with Jack Shear, President of the Ellsworth Kelly Foundation. The exhibition is curated by Scout Hutchinson, The FLAG Art Foundation Associate Curator of Contemporary Art at the Parrish Art Museum, and Jonathan Rider, FLAG’s Director, with Caroline Cassidy, FLAG’s Deputy Director.
Exhibition Support
Ellsworth Kelly: Eight Decades
is made possible, in part, thanks to the generous support of The FLAG Art Foundation.
The Parrish Art Museum’s programs are made possible, in part, by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Kathy Hochul and the New York State Legislature, and by the property taxpayers from the Southampton School District and the Tuckahoe Common School District.
