Chappaqua Library Art Lecture Series
Julie Mehretu (b. 1970, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia) creates new forms and finds unexpected resonances in her mixed media paintings. Drawing from the histories of art and human civilization, her imagery has representational origins, but remains steadfastly abstract.
This mid-career survey presents an overview of 30 large-scale paintings and 40 works on paper that examine how forces such as migration, capitalism and climate change impact human populations and possibilities. Julie Mehretu through Aug 8, 2021 at the Whitney Museum of American Art.
