ROBERT LONGO IN BROOKLYN

The Brooklyn Museum exhibition PROOF—FRANCISCO GOYA, SERGEI EISENSTEIN, ROBERT LONGO brings together drawings, etchings, and film—mostly black and white—by three artists who “witnessed a turbulent transition from one era to another and the profound repercussions of revolution, war, and civil unrest. Within a broad chronological framework, PROOF traces the historical lineage of a visual language and artistic impulse.”*

PROOF was initiated by Garage Museum of Contemporary Art, Moscow, and curated by their chief curator Kate Fowle, in collaboration with Robert Longo. The Brooklyn Museum presentation is organized by Sara Softness, their assistant curator of special projects.

 

PROOF—FRANCISCO GOYA, SERGEI EISENSTEIN, ROBERT LONGO, through January 7.

BROOKLYN MUSEUM, 200 Eastern Parkway, Brooklyn.
