Extreme Abstraction
July 15 - October 16, 2005

Extreme Abstraction was a major installation that opened to the public in the summer of 2005. Commissions by leading, abstract artists, recent acquisitions of contemporary art, and masterworks from the Gallery's collection were highlighted together and throughout the entire Gallery to provide visitors with a visual representation of the history and future of abstract art. Artists such as Polly Apfelbaum, Lynda Benglis, Arthuro Herrera, Piet Mondrian, Jackson Pollock, Gerhard Richter, and Pae White were only a few of the many artists who were represented, several of whom were working at the Gallery on site-specific installations for this exhibition.
