EXHIBITION: Alex
Katz and Edward Ruscha
Opening Reception:
Thursday 15 February
Gallery - 6:30 pm
Two of America's most influential contemporary painters,
Alex Katz and Edward Ruscha, will show together for the first time at
the American Academy in Rome. The exhibition will include a selection
of the artists' recent works, as well as two new paintings never before
exhibited. The two artists could be said to represent the artistic sensibilites
of the American coasts, East and West: while Katz's work is influenced
by and representative of an urban, cool New York attitude, Ruscha's
work clearly shows the effect and mark of Hollywood and Southern California.
An illustrated, bilingual catalogue will be available.
