Chuck Close at Pace Gallery

September 11, 2015 - October 17, 2015

Currently open at Pace Gallery in Chelsea, Chuck Close's exhibition, Red, Yellow, Blue, features a new body of work in which, continuing his use of the grid and applying a system of layers, he delivers full-color paintings using only three: cyan, magenta and yellow. Following the line of inquiry evident throughout his career, Close is interested in employing minimal amounts of visual information to create fully recognizable images in order to investigate the process of visual cognition.

Chuck Close is a former participant of the Vera List Art Project. In 2007 he created a limited edition print as well as a poster in honor of the program's 45th anniversary. Posters are available here.
