Synopsis

A Painting Conversation: 55 Years presents over five decades of Frances Barth's painting, highlighting the evolution of her distinctive approach to abstraction. From her early bold, expansive compositions to more recent works where form and color interact in layered, dynamic ways, Barth's paintings reveal a deep engagement with space, structure, and surface. The selection, spanning from 1970 to today, offers a focused look at her ability to merge expressive mark-making with a sense of measured precision, creating works that are both visually striking and richly contemplative.
