Our booth features recent projects by Julie Mehretu and Richard Serra, with a focused presentation of lithographs by Ellsworth Kelly in celebration of the artist’s centennial.



On view are two monumental etchings by Julie Mehretu, each comprised of 10 panels measuring nearly 8 feet tall by 14 ½ feet wide. They are extraordinarily complex in their scale, in the arrangement of imagery, and in the printmaking techniques used. Mehretu’s focus on printmaking has always played a significant role in the creation of her paintings, and vice versa, as the process forces her to slow down and deeply consider how a mark is made and how it will look once other colors and forms are layered into the final work.



Richard Serra continues his 50 years of collaborations with Gemini with a series of massively impressive works titled “Casablanca.” Never going through a press, a mixture of oil stick, etching ink, and silica is blended in an industrial mixer and applied onto the surface of handmade Kozo paper using a small hand-held roller.

And finally, concurrent with the gallery’s exhibition “Ellsworth Kelly at Gemini: An Exploration of Color”, marking the artist’s centennial, we will showcase a selection of rare editions by Ellsworth Kelly.
