Sam Gilliam: Close to Trees opens April 2 at the Katzen

Sam Gilliam: Close to Trees
April 2 to August 14, 2011
Opening Saturday, April 2, from 6:00 to 9:00 

Sam Gilliam first took his paintings off their stretchers in 1965, using the liberated canvases to transform gallery walls into three-dimensional abstractions. He has continued to experiment with the practice of painting and the line between painting and sculpture. For this exhibition, Gilliam will transform the 8,000 square foot space of the third floor of the American University Museum at the Katzen Arts Center into an exciting and colorful work of art.
