About Elizabeth Murray: Painters Progress
At MoMA Exhibitions, *Elizabeth Murray: Painter’s Progress* follows the New York–based artist’s break from the flat rectangle into shaped canvases that treat painting as an object in space. The exhibition traces her working process across decades, from drawing and collage to color-saturated constructions that borrow the quick timing of cartoons and the weight of sculpture. Murray’s long relationship with the city’s postwar art scene gives the show local cultural ballast. One clear takeaway is how her humor functions as structure, not decoration.
