SEE // Richard Artschwager!

Richard Artschwager is one of the most influential trailblazers of American contemporary art. His retrospective at the Whitney features bold sculptures, paintings, and illustrations demonstrating the artist’s knack for the languages of pop art, conceptual art, and minimalism. His pieces transform everyday objects such as tables, chairs, windows, and even exclamation points into the unfamiliar, estranging, and entirely alluring.

WHERE TO SEE
Richard Artschwager! opens October 26 at the Whitney Museum of American Art.
