Julie Mehretu

Filling the entirety of The Whitney’s expansive fifth floor gallery is an exhibition spanning two decades of Julie Mehretu’s practice, open to the public through August 8. The most comprehensive survey of the Ethiopian artist’s work to date, the presentation (co-curated by Los Angeles Country Museum of Art’s curator Christine Y. Kim and The Whitney’s assistant curator Rujeko Hockley) brings together over 70 works highlighting Mehretu’s multilayered artistic oeuvre, including intimate drawings, printmaking, and large-scale, panoramic canvases.
