Description

Moscow artist Valery Yurlov (born 1932) worked in the ‘60s and ‘70s when Soviet nonconformist artists were forming movements and grouping into collectives. Yurlov worked alone, beyond the confines of politics and ideologies, his work standing out as one of the earliest examples of geometric analytical abstraction within Soviet nonconformist art. This exhibition continues a series of one-man shows devoted to early nonconformist artists.

HOURS: Tuesday-Friday: 10am - 4:30pm. Weekends: 12 noon - 5pm. Open until 9pm on the first Wednesday of each month.
