Spotlight on Elizabeth Murray

September 27, 2018 - March 25, 2019

Anderson Collection at Stanford University
Stanford, CA

Elizabeth Murray’s (1940-2007) work expands the definition of painting and challenges its conventions. This installation in the second floor galleries focuses on large-scale shaped, multipart canvases and related works on paper composed of dynamic forms in striking color, both from within and outside of the museum’s collection.
