Featuring intimate works on paper by Richard Diebenkorn created during his
Berkeley years (1953 – 1966), several will be shown publicly for first time. Also
included will be drawings by other Bay Area Figurative movement artists and
those closest to Diebenkorn including David Park, Elmer Bischoff, Frank Lobdell,
Nathan Oliveira and James Weeks. An exhibition catalog and public program series
will showcase the historic role that the Art Center played in the rise of the Bay
Area Figurative movement and provide a unique perspective into the ways in
which Diebenkorn’s work lives on in private collections and still resonates in the
contemporary art world today. Guest curated by Jan Wurm.
