    Transitions: Works by Françoise Gilot focuses on the evolution of Gilot’s approach to composition and color beginning with her semi­nal Labyrinth Series and including key works into the 21st century. Rich abstraction in a bold, powerful palette, a mainstay of her work, transitions to references to the figure, botanicals and still life. Iconic images such as orbs, birds, water and earth elements are investigated in tandem with color juxtapositions that are built up from layers and layers of pigment.

    The exhibition runs from June 1st through Sept. 23rd, with an opening reception June 3rd, 1 to 3 pm. An illustrated lecture by curator Mel Yoakum, Ph.D. will be presented Sept. 20th at 3 pm. A special presentation of The Shot Heard ‘Round the World, with special guest Peter Salk, President, Jonas Salk Legacy Foundation, is scheduled Sept. 21st.
