Exhibitions

Alex Katz is one of the most important and respected living American artists. In 2012 Katz will celebrate his 85th birthday, and a career that spans a remarkable six decades.

For his exhibition at Turner Contemporary, Katz brings together over 30 canvases, plus collages and cut-outs, that span the full breadth of his career from the 1950s to now.

To accompany the show, Katz has made a personal selection of works from the Tate Collection. Drawn from British, European and American artists, he brings together an illuminating cross-generational selection of artists for this special display.

Alex Katz is a collaboration with Tate St Ives where the exhibition will be shown from 19 May – 23 September 2012.
