About the Exhibition:
<\/strong>Sol LeWitt Wall Drawings: Expanding a Legacy<\/a> <\/em>features seven drawings newly donated to the Yale University Art Gallery from the artist\u2019s estate, making the Gallery\u2019s collection of LeWitt\u2019s work in this signature medium the largest of any museum worldwide. The drawings on view represent a range of the artist\u2019s techniques, including bold geometric patterns executed in colorful ink wash and works composed entirely of fine graphite lines. The exhibition also celebrates the newly inaugurated Sol LeWitt Wall Drawing Study Center at Yale West Campus, which will house the archive of this groundbreaking artist and be an international nexus for research on his work.<\/p>\n
