Jack Roth: Formulas in Color

LewAllen Galleries is pleased to present its second major exhibition, of the works of Jack Roth (1927–2004), the acclaimed abstract artist and mathematician whose career spanned several decades and whose contributions to Abstract Expressionism and Color Field painting remain significant. This exhibition, entitled Formulas in Color, opens on Friday, August 16 and remains on view through September 20, 2024.

The show includes examples from various periods of Roth’s career, including his early gestural, densely brushed canvases through his crisp, confident graphic 1970s and 1980s paintings that emphasize high-intensity color arrangements and wide expanses of black pigment on unprimed canvas.
