An exhibition surveying the early figurative paintings of Neil Welliver will be
on view at ALEXANDRE GALLERY from December 1 through January 26, 2002. The
artist will be present for a reception at the gallery on Saturday, December 1, 1 to 4 pm.
During the late 1960s and early 1970s, before turning to the Maine landscape as
his exclusive subject, Welliver painted large-scale nude figures in forest settings. The
show will mark the first presentation of this body of work since the 1970s.
A fully illustrated catalogue with essays by Frank H. Goodyear, Jr. and Barry
Schwabsky accompanies the exhibition.
Neil Welliver is represented exclusively by ALEXANDRE GALLERY.
