Suzanne Harris, Mary Heilmann, Harriet Korman

Harriet Korman explains, “Despite differences in the methods used and in the appearance of the artists’ works, a strong interest in geometry unified the show.”

Suzanne Harris exhibited two drawings and a half-pyramid sculpture composed of 22 equidistant triangular parallel planes of glass separated by vertical glass panels. The work rested on a base of glass bricks.

Mary Heilman showed four paintings including a work of oil on canvas entitled The Third Jalousie. In it, two roughly parallel dark vertical sections are each interrupted by 15 lighter, roughly horizontal lines placed at varying distances from each other. The geometric relationships explored in this work were not mathematically precise.

Harriet Korman showed two paintings.
