Behind the scenes of "Richard Pousette-Dart: 1930s" Today, we are focusing on "Richard Pousette-Dart: 1930s", on view in our Main Gallery through December 20. The exhibition is the first in-depth consideration of Richard Pousette-Dart's drawings from the 1930s. Best known as a founding member of the New York School, Pousette-Dart began drawing and painting by the age of eight. He was inspired by African, Oceanic, and Native American art during frequent trips to the Museum of Natural History. These early drawings, made between the ages of 14 and 24, explore Pousette-Dart’s concerns about sculpture and working three-dimensionally.
