Ree Morton: at the Still Point of the Turning World October 20, 2009

An exhibition of drawing-based works by the late American artist Ree Morton (1936 -1977), will be on view in the Main Gallery and Drawing Room. 'Ree Morton: At the Still Point of the Turning World' highlights Morton's influential body of work, remarkably all produced in a single decade between her decision to turn to art full-time in the late 1960s and her tragic death in an automobile accident in 1977, shortly before her 41st birthday. The exhibition is comprised of a selection of early drawings, several of which will be on view for the first time, along with major drawing-based sculptural works and a selection of notebook sketches.
