Galerie Lelong & Co. is pleased to announce a new solo exhibition by Leonardo Drew at the Amon Carter Museum of American Art, Fort Worth, Texas from June 17, 2023 to June 30, 2024.
Sculptor Leonardo Drew is the next contemporary artist to transform the Museum’s first floor galleries with a new site-specific commission. Known for his large-scale, multi-dimensional installations, Drew employs organic materials to create topographies that are at once looming in size and stunning in their intricacies. For Number 235T, Drew will anchor sculptural pieces that he refers to as “planets” and surround them with hundreds of smaller objects as he works to identify the interconnectedness of them all.
This commission is the latest in a series initiated by the Carter in 2015 to respond to works in the Museum’s collection through the perspective of American artists working today and was coordinated by Talley Dunn Gallery.
