Gallery Talk - Kelly Sherman, Artist

Boston-based artist Kelly Sherman—winner of the 2006 James and Audrey Foster Prize—addresses complex narratives about relationships, loss, and love using seemingly mundane analytical systems and structures such as diagrams, lists, and floor plans. Sherman discusses Gonzalez-Torres’s work on view in Figuring Color: Kathy Butterly, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Roy McMakin, Sue Williams, providing insight on how artists imbue ordinary objects with emotion and sentiment.
