NSU Art Museum presents Human Animals: The Art of Cobra
July 8, 2017 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Saturday, July 8th from 6-8pm enjoy the Opening Reception of Human Animals: The Art of Cobra at NSU Art Museum. Cobra, the European avant-garde movement named after its home cities of Copenhagen, Brussels and Amsterdam, caused a revolution in modern art during just three years of creative activity (1948-1951), and continues to influence artists working today. Featuring works from NSU Art Museum’s celebrated Golda and Meyer Marks Cobra Collection, the largest Cobra collection in America, this new exhibition explores the innovative use of animal imagery by Cobra artists including Pierre Alechinsky, Karel Appel, Asger Jorn and others. On view July 9 – October 8, 2017.
