Description

Subject Matter:

This is a poster for Greenblat's 1985 solo show at the Gracie Mansion Gallery in New York. At the center of the poster, Greenbalt used his 1984 sculpture, "Ark of Triumph" (UMMA 2005/1.410) to publicize the exhibition. The wooden sculpture is a whimsically painted wooden object that was featured in the Whitney Museum Biennale the same year.

Physical Description:

This poster has two bands of text, one at the top and another at the bottom, with an image of a colorful sculpture at the center. On an orange band at the top, the text reads "RODNEY ALAN GREENBLAT THE NEW WORLD FEBRUARY28-MARCH24"; and, on a light blue band at the bottom, the text reads "GRACIE MANSION GALLERY NEW YORK CITY 167 AVENUE A 212 477 7331."
