Anne Truitt: Pioneer of Minimal Art
Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen K20












Düsseldorf 40213
Germany
Presented by Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen and curated by Vivien Trommer, this exhibition is the first European retrospective of the work of Anne Truitt. Bringing together 120 works spanning more than four decades, the show features Truitt’s sculptures of the early 1960s, her works on paper, the white-on-white Arundel paintings, and the Pith series—among the final works she produced. Highlights include her early, vividly colored sculptures Hardcastle (1962), Remembered Sea (1971), and Quipe (1984); and shown for the first time since the 1960s is Summer Run (1964), a rare metal sculpture produced during Truitt’s time in Japan. Large-scale, elongated paintings such as Echo (1973) and Ojibwa (1993) underscore her lifelong exploration of color as both structure and sensation.
