Lynne Drexler: The First Decade––a landmark exhibition presented in collaboration with Mnuchin Gallery—will survey the seminal paintings Lynne Drexler (1928-1999) created between 1959-1969. A second-generation Abstract Expressionist and student of both Hans Hofmann and Robert Motherwell, Drexler established a distinctive stylistic idiom through vibrantly contrasting hues, applied in swatch-like patches with a Pointillist dynamism. Mnuchin Gallery will feature works produced between 1959-1964, while Berry Campbell will feature those between 1965-1969. This chronological presentation aims to highlight Drexler’s significant contributions to post-war American abstraction in
demonstrating the innovative and signature style she honed over this pivotal decade in her career spent primarily
in New York.
On view from October 27 - December 17, 2022, Lynne Drexler: The First Decade will be accompanied
by a fully illustrated catalogue authored by Gail Levin, with contributions by Lois Dodd and Jamie Wyeth. We are
grateful for Art Intelligence Global’s participation in this collaborative venture.
