LACMA’s Unframed blog has a beautifully written post about David Smith, whose retrospective exhibition, David Smith: Cubes and Anarchy, closed Sunday. Check out the incredible photo of Smith at work by Dan Budnik, looking like a Lewis Hine work portrait.

The Los Angeles County Museum of Art blog, Unframed, highlights their upcoming show, David Smith: Cubes and Anarchy. This post provides wonderful insight into exhibition design and how the works inspired creative solutions. In our own Smith show, we examine the relationship between Smith’s two-dimensional works and his sculptures (which one critic said were like “drawings pulled up.”) The show at LACMA focuses on the concept of geometry in the work of this great American artist and opens Sunday.
