Julie Mehretu: Grey Area

October 28, 2009–January 6, 2010

For the fifteenth project of Deutsche Guggenheim’s commission program, American artist Julie Mehretu will premiere a new suite of paintings. Inspired by a multitude of sources, including historical photographs, urban-planning grids, modernism, and graffiti, these semiabstract works explore the intersections of power, history, dystopia, and the built environment and their impact on the formation of personal and transcommunal identities.
