The 22nd Street gallery will be a celebration of the Minimalist Art and the post-Modernist movements, featuring works by Chamberlain, Flavin, Hockney, Irwin, Judd, LeWitt, Mangold, Marden, Murray, Riley, Ryman, Samaras, Schnabel, Shapiro, Turrell, and Tuttle, among others. Texts and archival material from previous exhibitions related to these themes, such as the seminal 1979 exhibition Grids, will also be included. Lucas Samaras’ Mirrored Room, 1966, last seen in New York City in the artist’s 1973 Whitney retrospective, will be reconstructed at 22nd Street, on loan from the Albright-Knox Art Gallery. During the month of August, a team of Sol LeWitt’s draftsmen will install Wall Drawing #741, previously on view (for the first and last time) in LeWitt’s 1994 exhibition at Pace. Other important loans include Kiki Smith’s Lilith, 1994 (Museum of Fine Arts, Boston); Chuck Close’s Fanny/Fingerpainting, 1985 (National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.); and Richard Tuttle’s Walking on Air, B-8, 2008 (MoMA, New York).
50 Years at Pace will be on view at 32 East 57th Street, 534 West 25th Street, and 545 West 22nd Street from September 17th through October 23rd. The exhibition will also be
on view at The Pace Gallery’s new location at 510 West 25th Street through October 16th.
Opening receptions will be hosted in each gallery from 5:30-9 p.m. on Thursday, September 16, 2010.
