An exhibition of figurative drawings, gouaches, and paintings
Artemis Greenberg Van Doren Fine Art is pleased to present an exhibition of figurative drawings, gouaches, and
paintings by Richard Diebenkorn (1922 1993), on view from April 25 through June 7, 2002. Organized in
association with Galleria Lawrence Rubin, Milan, this exhibition will feature forty-four representational works from
the Estate of Richard Diebenkorn.
The exhibition will cover the artists innovative middle years from the late 1950s through mid 1960s, the period
between his celebrated early Berkeley abstractions and the Ocean Park series. During this phase of Diebenkorns
career, he turned against the prevailing tide of abstract expressionism and returned to the possibilities of
representational figure painting. During this period, he worked directly from a live model and painted still lifes and
landscapes. All of these genres will be represented in the exhibition, including drawings in crayon and ink wash,
gouaches, and oil paintings on canvas and wood panel. Paintings such as Woman with Newspaper, 1960, and
Untitled (Seated Woman in Striped Chair), 1965 both featured in the exhibition masterfully explore the intricate
interplay between formal rigor, studied observation, and sensual color.
