Mary Sully presents the first solo gallery exhibition in New York of Sully's "personality prints" — inventive drawings begun in the late 1920s that portray celebrities through a sophisticated synthesis of representational and abstract elements, modern design, and Native American art forms. Each work maps the proliferating networks of the modern mechanical age through its subject, merging Sully's knowledge of contemporary art movements with Indigenous visual traditions into a dazzling and wholly original body of work. The exhibition is curated by Jenelle Porter and organized in collaboration with the Mary Sully Foundation.
