Description: More Dimensions Than You Know takes as its focal point nearly 25 paintings created in the years from 1979 to 1989, highlighting Whitten's propensity for pushing the technical and aesthetic boundaries of painting as a medium. The catalogue includes an essay by Richard Shiff, curator of the exhibition and Effie Marie Cain, Regents Chair in Art at The University of Texas at Austin. Parsing various aspects of Whitten's practice, Shiff's engaging essay speaks to the irreducible aspects of Whitten's work, establishing his invaluable contributions to the narrative of postwar American painting. Exhibition: Hauser & Wirth, New York, USA (28.01.-08.04.2017).
