Anne Truitt, Sculptor and Writer
Anne Truitt, 17th Summer, Acrylic/Wood, 1974 " The retrospective...presents Truitt's column sculptures that became the hallmark of her profoundly focused practice. Acting as a painter as well as a sculptor, the artist wrapped color around the corners of these sculptures, creating visually poetic relationships between structure and surface. Throughout her work, she investigated proportion, scale and color, as well as perception and memory."
