ABOUT
Gagosian is pleased to announce Pat Steir: Paintings, Part II, to conclude the summer season in Rome. Focused around a suite of tall and majestic paintings, the gallery has been entirely rehung with the artist’s collaboration to create new dialogues between works from different recent series. In 1969, while completing his final historic series of paintings, Barnett Newman wrote, “Why give in to these purists and formalists who have put a mortgage on red, yellow, and blue, transforming these colors into an idea that destroys them as colors? I had, therefore, the double incentive of using these colors to express what I wanted to do—of making these colors expressive rather than didactic and of freeing them from the mortgage. Why should anybody be afraid of red, yellow, and blue?”
