James Lee Byars: Early Works & The Angel

17 Jan-16 Mar 2013

Michael Werner Gallery
London W1K 7PZ

Overview

Michael Werner Gallery in London is pleased to announce an exhibition of major works by the late American artist James Lee Byars. Early Works & The Angel presents Byars's extraordinary sculpture, "The Angel", exhibited alongside several early sculptures, painted scrolls and performative objects. This provocative pairing charts the origin of Byars's aesthetic as it emerged in Japan during the late 1950s and early 1960s, examining the artist's obsession with figuration and his lifelong quest for perfect form.
