Art Projects International is pleased to present Rectangle, the first exhibition dedicated to Richard Tsao’s intimate and exquisite works on paper from the 1990s.
About
The exhibition brings together 21 works from Tsao’s Rectangle series, lushly layered abstract works on paper that are closely linked to his singular “flood room” painting series and provides an opportunity to understand his artistic development.Created in the winter of 1996, a year after his breakout first solo museum exhibition in New York at the Queens Museum in 1995, these works on paper are the earliest works from Richard Tsao’s extensive explorations with works on paper engaging his widely varied and inventive techniques resulting from his highly individual aesthetic. These small works on paper present a more playful and freely experimental Tsao and offer a glimpse into a critical period in the artist’s career that coincided with his prolific output and the development of his “flood room” paintings. Two rarely seen flood room paintings that were part of his recent solo museum exhibition “Richard Tsao: Constant Gardener” at MoCA Westport in 2023 will also accompany the show.
