Summary
editDescription | Picture of the artist Sam Gilliam standing amongst his 3-dimensional painting installation Autumn Surf at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art in 1973, photographed by San Francisco Chronicle staff photographer Art Frisch. A black-and-white image of Gilliam, a tall African American man wearing sunglasses and a light-colored leather jacket, posing with his hand on one of several vertical wooden beams installed in the gallery, surrounded by hundreds of feet of painted canvas in swirling patterns. Several sections of the canvas have been draped across other horizontal beams, and multiple points in the canvas have been pulled into the air via a series of ropes, wires, and pulleys strung throughout the gallery. The entire room is filled by the installation, apart from a visible opening to the left of the artist where the canvas has been pulled away from the center of the room, allowing viewers to enter. |
