17:45 Jay DeFeo presents A Retrospective | |
This retrospective is the definitive exhibition to date of the
work of Jay DeFeo (1929–89). At the outset of her career in the 1950s,
DeFeo was at the center of a vibrant community of Beat artists, poets,
and musicians in San Francisco. Although she is best known for her
monumental painting The Rose (1958–66, now in the Whitney’s
collection), which she spent eight years making and which later
languished hidden behind a wall for two decades, DeFeo created an
astoundingly diverse range of works spanning four decades. Her
unconventional approach to materials and intensive, physical process
make DeFeo a unique figure in postwar American art who defies easy
categorization. The full breadth of her work will be presented for the
first time in this exhibition of more than 130 objects. This astonishing
array of collages, drawings, paintings, photographs, small sculptures,
and jewelry will illuminate DeFeo’s courageous experimentation and
extraordinary vision. Jay DeFeo: A Retrospective is organized by Dana Miller, Curator of the Permanent Collection.   Feb 28–Jun 2, 2013by Whitney Museum of American Art | |
