Summer Choices: A Group Exhibition

July 5 - September 8, 2018

Chris Burden, Eric Fischl, Hamish Fulton, Mary Heilmann, Robert Kushner, Tom Marioni, Julie Mehretu, Chris Ofili, Laura Owens, Steve Reich, David Salle, Wilson Shieh, Wayne Thiebaud, Richard Tuttle, Charline von Heyl, and William T. Wiley.

“After a year of organizing solo or thematic shows that are more-or-less formal or rigorous, I think the summer is a good time for a fun, free-form, laid-back approach,” director Valerie Wade said in planning this 2018 summer season at Crown Point Press. In the exhibition’s title, “choices” is the operative word. We have not hesitated to mix generations, concepts, abstraction, and representation. “Spontaneous associations can happen when unlikely works are hung next to one another,” Valerie remarked.
