SUMMARY:Installation: Ruth Asawa: Untitled (S.272)
DESCRIPTION:An iconic work by a beloved and influential Bay Area artist\, Untitled (S.272) is a nine-foot-tall hanging sculpture composed of looped copper and iron wire\, created in the mid-1950s by Ruth Asawa (American\, 1926–2013). This second installation in the Fang Family Launchpad is a masterful example of the suspended\, abstract works of looped wire for which Asawa is best known. Its airy interior and exterior spaces flow seamlessly into one another\, using organic lines that evoke shapes found in nature — including the human body — while also suggesting a gently undulating movement.    \nMuseum Hours:\nThu:\n1 PM – 8 PM\nFri–Mon:\n10 AM–5 PM\nTue–Wed:\nClosed \nPhoto: Ruth Asawa\, Untitled (S.272\, Hanging Seven-Lobed Continuous Interlocking Form with Spheres in Two Lobes)\, approx. 1954.

SUMMARY:Printing Color: Chiaroscuro to Screenprint
DESCRIPTION:Color has challenged and fascinated printmakers since the Renaissance. This exhibition explores technological and artistic revolutions in color printmaking from the 16th century through today. From innovative 18th-century mezzotints to avant-garde 19th-century lithographs to experimental works by contemporary artists Kiki Smith and Henry Taylor\, the exhibition highlights printmaking across time and technique. These vibrant works on paper reveal the enduring pull of color in print. \nPhoto: Loretta Bennett (b. 1960)\, Forever (for Old Lady Sally)\, 2006\, 2006.
