About the event

The first retrospective dedicated to the drawings of Marisol Escobar (Paris, 1930 – New York, 2016), bringing together more than 100 works produced from the 1950s until her death. Shown alongside sculptures that extend her drawing practice into three dimensions, archival materials, and several Andy Warhol films in which she participated, the works—almost entirely from the collection of the Buffalo AKG Art Museum—highlight drawing, the medium through which she expressed global concerns, personal discomforts, and imaginative fictions, as the thread running through her career. The title refers to the question that gallerist Leo Castelli asked in the late 1950s—'How can you leave when things are just beginning?'—echoing the artist's decision to step away from the art world at crucial moments that involved the transformation of her work. Curated by Laura Vallés Vílchez. Exhibition co-produced by MAC/CCB and Fundación Botín, Santander. Conceived in collaboration with the Buffalo AKG Art Museum. Wednesday, December 16, at MAC/CCB: 6:00 PM – Conversation with curator Laura Vallés Vilchez and MAC/CCB Artistic Director Nuria Enguita; 7:00 PM – Opening.
