The first major exhibition of Truitt’s work since 1974, "Anne Truitt: Perception and Reflection" is a survey of two- and three-dimensional works made during the artist’s 40-year career.

A variety of large-scale sculptures will be on view, including formative pieces from the early 1960's that suggest the architectural environment of the artist's childhood on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. The retrospective also presents the column sculptures that became the hallmark of Truitt's profoundly focused practice. Acting as a painter as well as a sculptor, the artist wrapped color around the corners of these sculptures, creating visually poetic relationships between structure and surface. Throughout her work, she investigated proportion, scale and color, as well as perception and memory. (Source: http://hirshhorn.si.edu)
