Guggenheim Exhibition on Nature's Artistic Evolution Opens in New York
The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York City launched a traveling exhibition exploring how artists have depicted nature across five centuries. Running from November 17, 2006, to March 28, 2007, at 1071 Fifth Avenue, the show represents another comprehensive survey from the institution. A 1971 lecture originally delivered in Tunis has been republished to coincide with a recent Paris exhibition. Robert Walser's newly translated essay collection offers contemporary perspectives, while a series features two individuals discussing single artworks in person. The Guggenheim previously presented the expansive '1900' exhibition curated by the late Robert Rosenblum in 2000.
