Exhibition Spotlight
Betty Woodman: Conversations on the Shore, Works from the 1990s
David Kordansky Gallery, New York October 29 - December 17, 2022
Betty Woodman: Conversations on the Shore, Works from the 1990s was a major solo presentation—the first of the artist’s work in New York in six years—that brought together a group of ceramic sculptures from a critical and career-defining period in Woodman’s practice. Anchored by the installation Conversations on the Shore (1994)—which was last shown in the late 1990s as part of a touring solo exhibition which originated at the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam—the works on view included a number of wall-mounted and free-standing sculptures, each engaged in a range of conversations about materials, history, function, architecture, sculpture and painting.
Here you'll find a round-up of press about the exhibition; videos documenting Woodman's work in the 1990s including studio and interview footage from the era; and our own "backstories," which share additional archival materials and images which shed light on specific works in the exhibition.
