DescriptionWorking with artists who were associated with Pat Hearn Gallery and American Fine Arts, Co., CCS Bard and Art+Culture Projects have partnered to present specially commissioned limited editions to support The Conditions of Being Art: Pat Hearn Gallery and American Fine Arts, Co. (1983-2004). No place setting has a more classical reference than an arrangement of fruit on a table, yet Jutta Koether - as we've excitedly come to expect – has produced an acute and perverse challenge to the traditional reading of still life and tableau. Consider the variety of interactions between colors and references of brushstrokes, the almost architectural, designed lines of dark red and simultaneous suggestion of both a deep and wide visual space and a nearly homogenous and monochromatic material surface at play in this silkscreen print.
