Nancy Graves
|
|
|
|
This exhibition surveys the work of Nancy Graves (1939–1995) through a selection of prints, paintings and sculpture beginning with her first suite of ten Lithographs Based on Geologic Maps of Lunar Orbiter and Apollo Landing Sites. These works established both systems of notation and themes of content that would be consistently maintained throughout her life as an artist. A world traveler, Graves always displayed a love of maps and map markings that can be detected throughout her body of work. Her curiosity about the cosmos is found in the appearance of diagrams of the constellations and the deities of classical mythology for whom they are named. Her intellectual interests in botany, biology, plant and animal life were only equaled by her immersion in the history of art and culture.
