Ellsworth Kelly: Aux Bords de l’Eau – Summer exhibition at the Maeght Foundation

The summer exhibition at the Maeght Foundation will explore – for the first time – the presence of water in the artist’s work and will offer a fresh look on Kelly’s work and his working methods. The artist is renowned for his large-scale abstract works. Throughout his life he was drawn to aquatic environments — from Belle-Île and the Côte d’Azur to New York and the Caribbean — where experiences of looking at water gave rise to drawings, collages, paintings and sculptures. Rather than depicting landscapes, Kelly translated the perception of water itself: its shifting colour, light and surface.
