Timothy Taylor, New York is pleased to present an exhibition of fifteen Leon Kossoff drawings selected from the artist’s studio.
About
Spanning 60 years, each work exists as a contemporary snapshot, recording the pulse of everyday London.The exhibition offers a retrospective view of the artist’s most well known subjects, capturing subtle glimpses into the nuances of his city from 1952 to 2012. In sweeping, seemingly spontaneous charcoal compositions, Kossoff presents a life in London; the movement of urban dwellers and the fabric around which their lives are defined. Views of Christ Church, 1992, King's Cross Building Site Early Days, 2003, and Arnold Circus, 2008-2012, have become Kossoff’s classic landscapes, while the implied commuters in Train by Night, 1990, Inside Kilburn Underground Booking Hall Summer No.2,1983, and The Flower Stall, Embankment Station, 1994, are his unseen ghostlike subjects.
