FreedmanArt is pleased to present Caro and Oltaki: Masters of Abstraction Draw the Figure. These drawings, many seen for the first time, convincingly express for Anthony Caro and Jules Olitski their common interest and long commitment to working directly from the model, also known as "life drawing". Our exhibition is a reprisal of the one in L996, held at The New York Studio School. An expanded selection and publication is being planned for institutional venues. Prime examples of the abstract work of Olitski and Caro will offer both a context, as well as further understanding to the relationships between their figurative and abstract forces.
