The 1970s marked an important moment in Carmen Herrera's evolution, wherein she concluded her widely celebrated 'Blanco y Verde' series, made her triumphant return to sculpture, and opened new forays into her painting practice, notably concluding with her influential and rarely exhibited Days of the Week series. Bringing together more than 20 artworks for an unprecedented presentation that ranges from sketches to paintings to historical Estructuras, this exhibition will demonstrate the breadth of Herrera's achievements during this transformative decade—all garnered despite her relative obscurity amongst the New York art world. The exhibition in New York is the first of a two-part presentation that focuses on Carmen Herrera's work from the 1970s. Following this is a special presentation of Herrera's 'Days of the Week' series–seven paintings that evoke the distinctive character of each day–that will inaugurate Lisson Gallery's new permanent Los Angeles gallery.
