The SU Art Galleries is pleased to announce the exhibition "James Rosenquist: Illustrious Works on Paper, Illuminating Paintings." Developed in collaboration with the Oklahoma State Museum of Art and curated by Sarah C. Bancroft, co-curator of the artist's 2003 retrospective at the Guggenheim Museum, "Illustrious Works on Paper, Illuminating Paintings" investigates the impact Rosenquist has had, and continues to have, on American art. The exhibition presents over 35 works from the artist's long career, including examples of his earliest abstractions from the 1950s and his exploration and evolution into Pop Art. James Rosenquist (American, b. 1933) became well known in the 1960s as a leader in the American Pop art movement alongside contemporaries Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, and Claes Oldenburg, and for more than five decades has created seminal works in printmaking, collage, drawing, and painting.
