Join us in October for the opening of our fall exhibitions -
Richard Pousette-Dart 1930s; Rashid Johnson: Anxious Men; and Open Sessions 5. Details on drawingcenter.org. 
Evening Opening is Thursday, October 1, 6-8pm
No RSVP needed. 
The Drawing Center exhibition will be the first in-depth consideration of Richard Pousette-Dart’s drawings from the 1930s, a period when the artist pursued directly-carved sculpture, yet also painted, experimented with photography, and created numerous works on paper. In "Rashid Johnson: Anxious Men", the artist creates a site-specific installation in the Drawing Room gallery. The core of the exhibition is a new series of black-soap-and-wax-on-tile portraits that Johnson calls his “anxious men.” The portraits will be set within a multi-sensory environment that includes wallpaper featuring a photograph of the artist’s father from the year Johnson was born, and an audio sound track comprised of Melvin Van Peebles’s “Love, That’s America,”. Open Sessions continues with artist directed group exhibitions. Open Sessions 5 will present reliefs, recordings, and imprints of exchange that examine how personal language relates to public discourses, and the artist’s drive to “do art” at any cost. This exhibition will feature the work of Lauren Bakst, Jimbo Blachly, Daniel Lichtman, Yuri Masnyj, Laura Morrison, Catya Plate, Sarada Rauch, and Alfred Steiner.
