Alice Neel: Men Only
Past exhibition
Introduction
Organised in association with Jeremy Lewison Ltd
The eleven paintings in Men Only show a variety of attitudes, from the erotic to the ironic, in an exhibition that looks at Neel's particular relationship to her male subjects. Amongst the works included are Neel's third and final portrait of her friend the author Max White as well as two powerful portraits of her sons Hartley and Richard as young men. Born near Philadelphia in 1900, Alice Neel was the foremost American portraitist and one of the most engaging painters of her times.
The exhibition is accompanied by a catalogue with text by poet, fiction writer and art critic Sue Hubbard.
