Walter Price
Pearl Lines
Greene Naftali, New York
2020
For Walter Price, “everything starts with a line.” Price’s highly distinctive draughtsmanship expands the possibilities of line, drawing in colored pencil, graphite, marker and oil pastel, often supplemented with bits of collage. Published on the occasion of the artist’s 2020 solo exhibition at Greene Naftali, Pearl Lines reproduces a group of drawings as they appeared in Price’s portfolio, photographed in protective sleeves that add a visible layer of mediation between the original sheet and the printed page.
