Richard Tuttle: It's a Room for 3 People at Drawing Center |

NEW YORK.- The Drawing Center presents “Richard Tuttle: It’s a Room for 3 People,” an exhibition of never-before-seen work by the contemporary American artist. This will be the first of two exhibitions of Tuttle’s work this season at The Drawing Center, with the second exhibition opening in the Drawing Room in February 2005. Specifically for this unique, back-to-back presentation, Tuttle has created new work that challenges the preconceived limits of the drawing medium. The Drawing Center’s exhibitions will also highlight the artist’s incredible and unexpected melding of form, color, and materials. Throughout his impressive 40-year career, Tuttle has revolutionized drawing on his own terms. Tuttle’s drawings break free from the conventional constraints of the medium, and The Drawing Center’s exhibitions will be an opportunity for audiences to reconsider his entire oeuvre as an interrogation of the paradigms of drawing. Tuttle’s work reflects an emphasis on seeing, rather than analyzing, and elicits an emotional and poetic response. For his exhibitions at The Drawing Center, the artist examines the qualities as well as the failures of drawing. In the main gallery, Tuttle will array five clusters of work—what he terms “villages”—comprised of both wall-mounted works and three-dimensional pieces. In all media, Tuttle’s pieces are characterized by a certain simplicity and a complete unification of picture and environment. This exhibition will also bring attention to Tuttle’s extraordinary manipulation of the organic properties of a surprising variety and combination of materials, including traditional drawing media, such as graphite, watercolor, charcoal, colored pencil, and gouache, as well as non-traditional media, such as plywood, string, cardboard, cloth, sawdust, glitter, and Styrofoam.
