Cecily Brown: Rehearsal is on view Wed-Sun 12-6pm | Thurs 12-8pm
"In Brown’s work, we can see two very different art ideas at work: the large-scale, virtuoso, gestural tradition of mid-twentieth-century American painting, and the smaller-scale, descriptive, anecdotal, and illustrative tradition that defined European art from the seventeenth to the early twentieth centuries. Part is Marcel Proust, the other Ernest Hemingway. Or in a more feminist line, one part Virginia Woolf, the other Elizabeth Bishop." -excerpt from David Salle's essay in the exhibition catalogue.
