Matthew Brown is pleased to present an exhibition of works by David Byrd (1926–2013), curated in close collaboration with the artist's Estate. Featuring twenty-one paintings, eleven sketchbook drawings, and a selection of thirty pages from his handmade book manuscript, the exhibition chronicles Byrd's thirty-year career working in the psychiatric ward of the Montrose, New York veterans affairs hospital, and over fifty years living in upstate New York. This is the first exhibition of David Byrd's work in California.
