"Lisa Yuskavage: Drawings" is the first comprehensive museum presentation of the artist’s drawings. Incorporating drawings from the early 90s to the present and including sketches and finished studies, the exhibition features a wide range of her explorations with materials including work in graphite, pen, Conte, pastel, charcoal, distemper, monotype, gouache, watercolor, acrylic and ink on paper. It charts Yuskavage’s career-long inquiry into how process and material experimentation create entirely new ways to find images. From her earliest drawings of imagined figures and still lives, through a period of investigation into what constitutes a model, to her recent studio and landscape scenes synthesizing the real and the imagined into a new kind of fictional reality, Yuskavage’s drawings give insight into the way we see and comprehend the world.
"Lisa Yuskavage: Drawings" is open to the public June 27, 2025 through January 4, 2026.
