The works of art exhibited in the "Back to Basics" exhibition came from the collection of the Frederick R. Weisman Art Foundation. The 46 large-scale works explores the range of geometric abstraction from 1960 Colorfield painting, Hard-Edge and Minimalism to the present. The artist's goal was to reach something vital and fundamental in the human experience in the most basic way.
The exhibition continues Tuesday-Sunday, 11 am to 6 pm, through December 6. The museum is closed on Mondays, and November 26 & 27 for Thanksgiving.
