Carmen Herrera‘s exhibition “Lines of Sight” is on view at The Whitney Museum of American Art through January 9, 2017. The show presents 50 pieces made over 30 years, including abstract work made while she was in Paris, her “Blanco y Verde” series, and some sculptures. Born in Havana, Cuba, Herrera is still painting in her studio in New York at the remarkable age of 101. This marks the artist’s first solo museum show since 1998.
