Romare Bearden: Ways of Working
Past Exhibitions exhibition
Overview
Although Bearden is best-known for his collages, he was constantly experimenting throughout his career, using various techniques to achieve his artistic goals. Ways of Working, Experiments & Techniques, highlights many of his most frequently used mediums, from screenprints and etchings to photo projections and monotypes. Many artists never branch out beyond one or two ways of working for fear of clouding their message, but Bearden's voice was so singular that it could transcend media.
