Member Preview Days
Friday, Dec 14, 2018
10 a.m.
Members see it first! For more than five decades, Vija Celmins has been creating subtle, exquisitely detailed “redescriptions” of the physical world — including oceans, desert floors and night skies — distilling vast, expansive distances into mesmerizing small-scale artworks. Vija Celmins: To Fix the Image in Memory features approximately 140 artworks, including paintings, drawings, and 3-D works. A global debut, this is the first Celmins retrospective in North America in more than twenty-five years.
