*This is a virtual event.*

In this installment, we look at three works by Ellsworth Kelly, Red Panel, Dark Green Panel, and Dark Blue Panel, all completed in 1986. Kelly’s work often defies categorization, a fact that pleased him. Are these paintings? Sculpture? Installation? Kelly denied that they represented objects, saying, “They are objects themselves.” Explore the contradictions with a Modern docent.
