Berry Campbell is pleased to announce πππ§π‘π πππ£π: πππ£π©π ππ©π§πππ© ππ€π’ππ£, an exhibition of paintings by the pioneering Abstract Expressionist Perle Fine (1905-1988). Spanning the 1940s through the early 1960s, the artistβs most celebrated period, this exhibition explores an important but long-underrecognized artist from the New York School and a woman who stood at the center of Abstract Expressionism.
This is Berry Campbellβs third exhibition for the artist, and it brings together fifteen of her most rare, important, and coveted paintings and works on paper. The exhibition highlights Fineβs remarkable ability to balance gesture, color, and structure in a purely abstract language.
Fine joined the American Abstract Artists group in 1946 and was among the eleven women included in the landmark 1951 Ninth Street Exhibition, the groundbreaking exhibition that brought together the artists who would define the New York School. She was also one of the first women admitted as a voting member of the 8th Street Club, βThe Club,β the influential gathering place for the downtown avant-garde.
Perle Fine exhibited extensively during her lifetime, including at Peggy Guggenheimβs Art of this Century, Betty Parsons Gallery, Stable Gallery, Tanager Gallery, and Graham Gallery. She is in numerous museum collections, including the Brooklyn Museum; the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.; the Metropolitan Museum of Art; the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum; and the Whitney Museum of American Art.
