Author Description

New York: New Drawings 1946-2007 is a selection of 117 works on paper, mostly Minimalist and Post-Minimalist, from the famous Wynn Kramarsky drawings collection. This beautifully curated collection includes works by William Anastasi, Carl Andre, Robert Barry, Trisha Brown, Eva Hesse, Kristin Holder, Nancy Holt, Jasper Johns, Donald Judd, Ellsworth Kelly, Win Knowlton, Barry Le Va, Sol Lewitt, Robert Mangold, Brice Marden, Agnes Martin, Robert Morris, Ed Ruscha, Robert Ryman, Fred Sandback, Richard Serra, Robert Smithson and countless others. Following an introductory essay by Elizabeth Finch and a conversation between Wynn Kramarsky and poet/art critic William Corbett, 27 artists from the collection contribute written responses and reflections--poems, interviews, aphorism, homages--on the drawings included. Among these respondents are William Anastasi, Dove Bradshaw, Karen Schiff, Joel Schapiro, Lawrence Weiner, Marjorie Welish and Terry Winters.
