Doha, Qatar: This October, Qatar Museums will present Ellsworth Kelly at 100, a major survey exhibition commemorating the late artist’s seven-decade career and the first retrospective of his work in the MENASA region.
Organised by Glenstone Museum (Maryland, U.S.A), the exhibition marks what would have been the artist’s 100th birthday in 2023 and is one of the largest retrospectives of Kelly’s work in the 21st century.
The presentation will be on view at M7, Qatar’s epicentre for innovation and entrepreneurship in design, fashion, and technology, from October 31, 2024 to February, 2025.
Ellsworth Kelly (1923–2015) is regarded as one of the most significant American painters and sculptors.
Throughout his career, the artist drew inspiration from nature and the world around him to create a singular style that shaped American abstraction in the 20th and 21st centuries.
