Cheim & Read will host its sixth exhibition by Lynda Benglis, titled “Lynda Benglis: New Work,” from September 8 through October 22, 2016, in New York.The exhibition will showcase Benglis’ artistry with handmade paper, wrapped around a chicken wire armature, which in some areas display bright, metallic color paintings offset by strokes of deep, coal-based black, while remaining virtually bare at others. There is a tinge of raw immediacy inherent to the moist strips of paper used. The sculptures betray slits and apertures to reveal the wire and sexual imagery. In addition, a catalogue with an essay by Nancy Pricenthal will available at the exhibition.Click on the slideshow for a sneak peek at the exhibition
