"When you look at the world, everything is separate - each thing is in its own space, has its own uniqueness. When I take photographs, I want somehow to capture that." —Ellsworth Kelly
Ellsworth Kelly, the celebrated American artist, was born 100 years ago on this day!
To celebrate
#ellsworthkelly100, we're sharing four photographs from our collection that Kelly took between 1950 and 1977. Most famously known for his exuberant use of color and shape across a variety of mediums including painting, printmaking, and sculpture, these photographs illustrate the artist's keen sense of composition and awareness of the world around him.
