The Art Institute of Chicago
Chicago, Illinois
18 October 2008– 18 January 2009
This exhibition provides viewers with the rare opportunity to study the drawings of the artists of this era in dialogue with one another. With their frequent pentimenti, or reappearance of underlying images that the artist may have tried to remove, and preparatory nature, these works offer important insights into the artistic process.
According to Steven Goldman, the couple was attracted to drawings “that document the rejected decisions—sometimes the more interesting and original choices.” In fact, Jean translated this interest into her life’s work. She holds a doctorate in Italian art history from the University of Chicago and has been an adjunct member of the faculty of the School of the Art Institute.
This distinguished group of works will be the first private collection to be shown in the newly renovated Jean and Steven Goldman Prints and Drawings Galleries, adjacent to the Jean and Steven Goldman Study Center.
