Joel Shapiro: Sculpture and Works on Paper
John Berggruen Gallery, San Francisco
May 4 - July 1, 2000

John Berggruen Gallery presents an exhibition of sculpture and works on paper by Joel Shapiro. 

Internationally recognized American artist Joel Shapiro continues his investigation of the connection between line and form. This exhibition consists of approximately six large scale cast bronze sculptures, one painted wood construction, and several recent pastels on paper. Shapiro's reductive geometrical forms are suggestive of figurative abstraction. His works evoke feelings and imply movement, gesture, emotion and energy. 

Joel Shapiro's sculpture and drawings have been extensively exhibited and are included in numerous public collections such as The British Museum, London; The Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.; The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, NY; Metropolitan Museum of Art, NY; Moderna Museet, Stockholm, Musée national d'art moderne, Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris; Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; Museum of Modern Art, Friuli, Italy; The Museum of Modern Art, New York; The National Gallery of Art, Washington D.C.; The Tate Gallery, London; and The Whitney Museum of American Art, NY.
