Description: This exhibition forms a representative overview of the artist's sculptural work from the 1960s until shortly before his death. Ellsworth Kelly was inspired by "the things he saw". He distilled his observations to their essence and transformed them into simple, clear-cut surfaces and forms. The exhibition centres on his perspectives on reality, through works such as the recumbent "Curve I" (1973), an abstracted carton cup. Several of the works refer to totem poles.
