From June 5th through July 6th, The Drawing Room is pleased to present "Jack Youngerman | Baltic Birches", an exhibition of plywood sculptures created between 1993 and 1995 in the artist's Bridgehampton studio.

 

In a career spanning six decades of painting and sculpture, Jack Youngerman’s focus has moved between two and three dimensions in works that synthesize inspirations from the natural world. The works featured in this exhibition are part of an extensive body of sculpture that ranges in scale from the intimate to the monumental. Created from striated layers of Baltic birch plywood, the tapering forms achieve Youngerman’s longstanding aim – to translate the inherent geometry of nature into an evocative abstraction.
