EARLY YEARS
Ensemble
This section reflects on the part of the exhibition that focuses on the early work of Dorothy Iannone. It follows Dorothy's journey as she moves to New York alongside her husband, James Upham. As they settle into their new life, Dorothy starts to experiment with painting. To create her unique Expressionist compositions, sometimes she discards conventional brushes in favour of her own fingers as tools. Slowly but surely, her canvases start to come alive, with figurative elements and more concrete shapes.
