"Robert Graham: Early Work 1963-1973" showcases pieces rarely seen by this American artist, focusing on his engagement with minimalism and figurative sculpture. The 2011 exhibition at David Zwirner was one of the first major presentations of his early work in the U.S. since 1972. Graham's early works, influenced by images from television and magazines like Life, feature Plexiglas-encased environments with miniature wax figurines in leisure activities. These pieces reflect the "Finish Fetish" aesthetic and the modernist interiors of 1960s California. Throughout his career, Graham focused on scale and the human figure, with exhibitions at venues like Kunstverein Hamburg and the Whitney Museum of American Art. His work is in major museum collections worldwide, and he received notable public commissions, including the 1984 Olympic Gateway in Los Angeles and the 1997 Duke Ellington Memorial in Central Park. Born in Mexico City in 1938, Graham died in Santa Monica in 2008.
