The
exhibition featured approximately 70 prints, drawings and related sculptures from throughout Puryear's nearly 40 - year career, including many works never shown before outside the artist's studio.1 Together with its substantial catalogue, it illuminated the complex and intimate relationship between Puryear's two - and three - dimensional thinking, and the persistence with which he
continually revisits and reworks forms, in some cases,
over the
course of decades.2
