Leon Golub

Two Black Women and a White Man (detail), 1986

Description

The Feldman Gallery will exhibit paintings and drawings by Leon Golub, one of America’s leading postwar painters. The paintings, from the late 80’s and early 90’s, include night scenes of urban violence and portraits that relate to racial imbalance. This body of work, which falls between Golub’s politically-charged paintings of mercenaries and riots from the early 80’s and his late paintings from 1996 to 2004, centering on themes of aging and death, has not been seen recently in New York.
