Retrospective Exhibition Marks the Centennial of Morris Graves’ Birthday

NEW YORK, NY.- Michael Rosenfeld Gallery presents its second solo exhibition featuring the work of Morris Graves (American, 1910-2001). On view through October 30, this retrospective exhibition marking the centennial of the artist’s birthday examines a career that spanned five decades. Approximately thirty works, including three sculptures from his rarely exhibited Instruments for a New Navigation series, will be on view. Graves lived a life of personal exploration in harmony with nature, and he is known for quiet, haunting images on paper that immortalize the essence of the creatures that inspired him.
