Hirshhorn Museum Exhibits Guillermo Kuitca

The Hirshhorn has initiated the first comprehensive retrospective of Argentinean artist Guillermo Kuitca to travel in the United States in 15 years.

The exhibition is named 'Guillermo Kuitca: Everything—Paintings and Works on Paper, 1980–2008' and will run from October 21, 2010 to January 9, 2011.

The exhibition is co-organized with the Albright-Knox Art Gallery and the Miami Art Museum. Examining over two decades of the artist’s painting and including approximately 45 canvases and 20 works on paper made between 1980 and 2008, Guillermo Kuitca: Everything opens in Miami in October 2009 and travels to Buffalo in February 2010. The exhibition is organized by Albright-Knox senior curator Doug Dreishpoon.

Evelyn Hankins is the coordinating curator for the Hirshhorn.

Guillermo Kuitca: Everything is organized by the Albright-Knox Gallery, Buffalo, New York; the Smithsonian’s Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington, DC; and Miami Art Museum, Florida. Major funding is provided by the Bruce T. Halle Family Foundation, AXA Group, and the Leadership and Honorary Patrons Committees for the exhibition, with additional catalogue support from Coleccion Patricia Phelps de Cisneros.
