Description:

"The first museum retrospective exhibition of Joe Brainard (1942 – 1994), was on view in Gallery 2, presented a wide selection from Brainard's prolific lifework, including approximately 150 collages, assemblages, paintings, drawings, and book covers. Brainard's art is characterized by humor and exuberant color, and by eclectic combinations of media and subject matter. Joe Brainard: A Retrospective reveals Brainard's creative genius and aims to raise the profile of this under-appreciated but nonetheless intriguing and important late-twentieth-century American artist." -- Rod Macneil, Contributing Editor.
