NEW YORK, NY – Coleman Burke Gallery is pleased to present the first New York solo-exhibition by noted artist Anna Schuleit. On view from October 22 through November 28, 2009, the show also serves as the inaugural exhibition of Coleman Burke Gallery New York – formerly RedFlagg. Under the same direction as RedFlagg, Coleman Burke Gallery New York is affiliated with Coleman Burke Gallery Portland and Coleman Burke Gallery Brunswick, both in Maine.

The Schuleit exhibition, titled “Two People Ago”, features ten large paintings on raw linen and four multi-panel works on paper, all of which revolve around the human figure. Previously known for her acclaimed site-specific installation projects, including Landlines (2007), Bloom (2003), and Habeas Corpus (2000), Schuleit’s work as a painter has been an ongoing and essential aspect of her practice-revealing a penetrating and original expression of the human figure. The exhibition will be accompanied by an illustrated catalog with an introduction by writer Nam Le, an essay by artist Mark Wethli, and an interview with the artist by writer Honor Moore.
