Please join us for the opening reception of “Taking Shape: Abstraction from the Arab World, 1950s–1980s,” which explores the development of abstraction in the Arab world via paintings, sculpture, and works on paper dating from the 1950s through the 1980s. Examining how and why artists investigated the expressive capacities of line, color, and texture, “Taking Shape” highlights a number of abstract movements that developed in the Middle East, North Africa, and West Asia, a
