Work Description:
This black and white photograph depicts an installation view of the Abstract Gallery within Peggy Guggenheim's Art of This Century Gallery in New York. Designed by architect Frederick Kiesler, the Art of This Century Gallery featured four distinct exhibition spaces: the Abstract Gallery, the Surrealist Gallery, the Kinetic Gallery, and the Daylight Gallery. Guggenheim's temporary commercial exhibitions, including those of Still and his contemporaries, took place in the Daylight Gallery, while artworks from her private collection were permanently displayed within the three remaining specially-designed environments. The Abstract Gallery presented paintings and sculptures on suspended ropes or V-shaped supports that extended from floor to ceiling. Photographed during Still's participation in the "Autumn Salon" of 1945, this installation view documents a number of Cubist paintings and other abstract artworks within Guggenheim's collection.
