I co-designed Marcia Hafif, The Inventory: Paintings, an exhibition focusing on organizing the works by a particular pigment and painting technique.
Focusing on the color story and minimalism of the exhibition, Marcia Hafif, The Inventory: Paintings focuses on organizing the works by the particular pigment and painting technique studies. It includes selected works from the following series: Red Paintings, Pacific Ocean Paintings, Double Glaze Paintings, TGGT (Tomatoes, Grapes, and Green Tea), and Shade Paintings.
From Laguna Art Museum:
Marcia Hafif emerged in the 1970s as a key figure among artists searching for ways of painting beyond abstraction. She directed her work to a study of pigments and their material supports, which led to single-color paintings made in series and intended to be installed in such a way that each wall and each exhibition becomes a work of art in itself. She has said, “I don’t make paintings so much as I make installations.”
