Rosemarie Castoro: Working Out

7 Apr-21 May 2022
PV 6 Apr 2022, 6-8pm

London W1S 4NJ

Overview

The first solo presentation in the UK of works by Rosemarie Castoro, a central figure in New York’s minimal and post-minimal art scene. The exhibition focuses on the artist's giant Brushstrokes and gesso sculptures from the 1970s, shown alongside a site-specific recreation of her architectural intervention Crackingand a grouping of important late works in welded metal.

Taking its name from art critic and curator Lucy R. Lippard’s essay Working Out (1975), the exhibition emphasises the physicality of Castoro’s approach to art-making, which was informed by her background in dance.
