The Dia Foundation will mount the first American survey of seminal minimalist Robert Ryman's work in more than 20 years. “Robert Ryman: Real Light, 1958-2007,” will run from December 9 to June 18, 2016 at Dia’s 545 West 22nd Street location.
On the momentous event, Dia director Jessica Morgan says, “There’s a very healthy conversation that’s going on right now in New York about painting, but Ryman often doesn’t seem to be a part of those conversations about experimental approaches to painting, where he’s played a big role. And it was very important for me to try to reinsert him into that discussion.”
