Mead Art Museum: Chuck Close
EXHIBITION ANNOUNCEMENT


Chuck Close: Self-Portrait/Scribble/Etching Portfolio, 2000

Mead Art Museum

November 16, 2007 - March 18, 2008


Chuck Close has been making self-portraits since the late 1960s. These efforts are invariably based on photographs that he makes of himself and famously translates into paintings, drawings, prints, and other media—typically a methodical, labor-intensive process.

His investment in such processes forms the subject of his Self-Portrait/Scribble/Etching Portfolio, 2000, a set of twenty-five prints that illustrates the steps required to produce a single, twelve-color etching. It is also the focus of this exhibition, which uses that portfolio as a lens through which to examine the intersections and parallels that structure Close's artistic ideas.

Accompanied by a full-color catalogue featuring a new interview with the artist. Organized in conjunction with the Picker Art Gallery, Colgate University, and the Colby College Museum of Art.
