Artists and Writers/House and Home

(Tuesday) (Saturday)

"The exhibition underscores the artist's long engagement with the themes of language, writing, and a sense of place. Artists and Writers/House and Home will be the artist's first solo exhibition in an American museum since the 1999 exhibition Fundamental Accuracy presented at the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, DC. In the decade since, Sarmento has experienced a remarkable period of aesthetic and intellectual growth in his art. The exhibition includes more than 40 paintings and works on paper, ranging from the monumentally scaled mixed media on canvas Anything To Fill In The Long Silences, 1998 and Where Speech Could Have Been Transcribed, 2001, to intimately scaled paintings on paper from the 2000 series "What Makes a Writer Great." Also featured are large enamel, collage, and graphic on paper drawings from "Women and Houses and Plants" and "House of Games," both from 2009, and the provocative etching and aquatint edition Seven Houses and Six Flats, 2006. In a special collaboration, the renowned author James Salter will author the accompanying illustrated publication." - Parrish Art Museum Press Release
