Rosemarie Castoro @ Thaddaeus Ropac

A presentation of works by Rosemarie Castoro (1939–2015), a central figure in New York’s minimal and post-minimal art scene, spans four decades of her multidisciplinary practice. The exhibition, Working Out, focuses on her giant Brushstrokes and gesso sculptures from the 1970s, shown alongside a site-specific recreation of her architectural intervention Cracking and a grouping of important late works in welded metal.

The exhibition takes its name from art critic and curator Lucy R. Lippard’s essay Working Out (1975); that emphasises the physicality of Castoro’s approach to art-making, which was informed by her background in dance.
