Friday, June 26-September 27. Cleve Gray: Man and Nature. A 30-year retrospective of noted American painter Cleve Gray, will be on view at the Columbia Museum of Art from June 26 through September 27, 2009. The exhibition illustrates the full progression of Gray's practice as he developed his signature gestural style between 1970 and 2004, the year he died. Man and Nature is the first comprehensive touring exhibition of Gray's work and is the only museum exhibition to date to focus on his mature abstraction. The 47 paintings in the show follow the development of the artist's color-based abstractions, forged out of introspection, his responses to his extensive travels, and his deep understanding of European and American modernism and Asian sources. Visit the Columbia Museum of Art for more information.
