In the late 1960’s, Howardena Pindell (America, b. 1943) arrive in New York and began to quietly revolutionize painting. At the time when the most-celebrated painters were singularly concerned with color and form on canvas, Pindell was exploding radically new materials and methods. She cut canvas and sewed it back together in irregular shapes, adding glitter, perfume, paper, and baby powder until her works’ surfaces were thick, textured, and three-dimensional. In 1979, spurred on by urgent political issues in the art world coupled with a near-death experience, Pindell began to bring here social activism into her art in unprecedented ways.<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n

Howardena Piindell: What Remains To Be Seen <\/em>celebrates an artist who challenged -and changed – the acceptable forms and subjects of paintings. The exhibition was organized around major developments in the artist’s fifty year career.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
