Xavier Hufkens presents ‘Forms from Nature’, the gallery’s first exhibition solely dedicated to works by American artist Milton Avery (1885–1965). The selected works, comprising oils, watercolours, and line drawings, highlight Avery’s distinctive approach to colour, light, and composition. While his urban surroundings in New York City were a rich source of inspiration for much of his life, he continually returned to nature, with an emphasis on simplified forms and colour as a primary vehicle of expression. Focusing on the artist’s affinity with the natural world, this catalogue charts the development of Avery’s practice over a span of three decades, from the 1930s to the 1960s.
