Pat Steir's Contemporary Transformations of Old Master Materials at Chiem & Read
Pat Steir reinterprets raw materials traditionally used in old master paintings through a distinctly contemporary lens. Her work is presented alongside Karin Davie's exhibition at Mary Boone Gallery and Pamela Crimmins's at Littlejohn Contemporary. Steir's artistic practice involves the simultaneous unfolding of poem and artwork as twin scrolls. These exhibitions coincide with the final day of the second year of an art fair taking place on Randall's Island, which concludes today, Monday.
