Exposition. Manuel NERI: Early Works, 1953-1978
http://www.corcoran.org/cga/exibit/gallery/neri/NERI1.htm
"This exhibition is a critical selection of the most dramatic, important, and beautiful assemblages, cut and painted plaster figures, fiberglass casts, canvases, and drawings by noted San Francisco Bay Area artist Manuel Neri. The selected period dates from Neri's provocative time as a participant in the circles of Oliveira, Voulkos, Lobdell, Park, Brown, Diebenkorn, Bischoff, and others at the California College of Arts and Crafts, Oakland, the California School of Fine Arts, San Francisco, and the University of California, Davis. The works in this exhibition reveal the emotionally charged creativity of this singular sculptor, applying color against reductive sculptural form, within this historic and influential Bay Area figurative painting movement."

Exposition. Lari PITTMAN
http://www.corcoran.org/cga/exibit/gallery/pittman/pit1.htm
"A mid-career survey organized by Los Angles County Museum of Art presents for the first time, the most ambitious and seminal works, ranging from early work to new paintings, by this Los Angeles-based artist. His mother was a Colombian, of Spanish and Italian descent, and a Catholic; his father was of German and English parentage and of Presbyterian upbringing. According to the artist, it is this rich mix of divergent national, ethnic, religious, and cultural sensibilities, as well as his identity as a gay male and the experience of living in Los Angeles, that instills his art with some of its visual zest and commotion, or what he describes as "a very hybrid identity." "

Exposition. CHIHULY Over Venice
http://www.corcoran.org/cga/exibit/gallery/chihuly/chi1.htm
"The objects in this exhibition are the result of an unprecedented project in which Chihuly traveled to Nuutajarvi, Finland: Waterford, Ireland: and Monterrey, Mexico, worked with glass blowers in each city, and created glasss reflected something of the traditions of each country. The resulting enormous, brightly colored clusters of blown-glass globes and tubes were installed in public spaces throughout central Venice, Italy for the city's famous Biennale."

Exposition Thomas NOZKOWSKI
"This exhibition features the paintings of New York City artist Thomas Nozkowski. Each one of the paintings on display have precisely the same dimensions, 16" x 24." The paintings are similar to small frescoes with paint scraped away to reveal further images. They engage the viewer in an interesting dialogue about the nature of paining and the nature of format. "

Exposition. Gene YOUNG: photographs
"Washington artist Gene Young makes photographs that evoke allegorical and personal responses to African culture. While some are photographed from life, other images are staged studio scenes or highly-charged still lifes of amulets, conch shells, bones, masks and other objects. Sometimes simple and direct, often layered and complex, Young's work constitutes an ongoing personal exploration of spiritual and historical connections between African-American life and a hidden African past. Many of Young's prints are created by hand-coating paper with palladium metals, one of the oldest and most beautiful photographic processes. He also uses new technology, in the form of computer-generated Iris ink jet prints. This presentation, which consists of approximately 30 photographs, marks Young's first solo museum exhibition."

Exposition. Nothing Personal: Ida APPLEBROOG, 1987-1997
http://www.corcoran.org/cga/exibit/press/ida1.htm
"This exhibition presents a ten-year survey of paintings by New York artist Ida Applebroog. The exhibition includes approximately 60 of her narrative works, ranging from monumental, multipaneled paintings to a series of intimate paintings titled. Since gaining prominence in the late 1970s, Applebroog has consistently laced her work with a passionate, often subversive social critique, confronting contemporary issues of gender, sexuality and power. This exhibition marks the first time many of her paintings from the 1990s have been exhibited in a major American museum outside of New York."

Exposition. Helen FRANKENTHALER: Dark Paintings
"This exhibition is a concise, focused survey of an important, yet relatively little known aspect of this celebrated artist's work. Although she has been acclaimed internationally for paintings, works on paper and graphic whose expressive power depends on orchestrations of radiant, chromatic color, there has been an ongoing other side to Frankenthaler's palette. Since the beginning of her career, she has explored the aesthetic resonances that prove that "dark" pigments can result in pictures that contain "light." Extracting maximum drama not from the sunlit close-valued hues with which she is associated, but from a range of somber tones and near-monochromes, Frankenthaler has produced some of her most powerful work."
