Rosemary Mayer: Beware of All Definitions
Curated by Marie Warsh, Max Warsh, and Katie Geha
Lamar Dodd School of Art, University of Georgia
7th September – 10th November 2017
Rosemary Mayer, an underrepresented post-minimalist and feminist artist who died in 2014, is the focus of this small survey. Beware of All Definitions is chiefly an investigation into Mayer’s practice from 1966 to 1973, a rich period in her career in which she moved from making geometric paintings on shaped canvases to drawings to sculptural works featuring dyed and draped fabrics. The exhibition, accompanied by a catalogue, will chart a development of consistent change, showing Mayer’s output as continual process, one that involved research and experimentation in a developing arc.
