Nude Ascending

INSTEAD of slowing down, the 83-year-old artist takes the greatest risks of his career while celebrating new horizons of the contemporary woman—ascending! This exhibition covers Drapell's work of the last fifteen years, the period from 2008 to 2023. In the 39 works exhibited on both floors, we can trace Drapell's artistic conversation with Duchamp, Picasso, all the way to Rothko and Olitski. Matthew Kyba wrote ground-breaking essays about this period of Drapell's work in the book Nude Ascending which will be launched during the opening.
