Exhibition at the Musée de Grenoble, 3 June - 24 September 2023

From the beginning of his career, Cy Twombly (1928-2011) asserted himself through a style of great freedom, combining graphic expression in which gesture took precedence with the inscription of signs such as letters, numbers, figures or even his own signature... The whole appears as sublime doodles, tense and sensual, which did not fail to baffle the critics.

In 1957, Twombly moved to Rome, eager to immerse himself in the ancient culture that so fascinated him. It gradually infused his work and manifested itself in snatches of phrases or proper names, "invoking rather than evoking" Greco-Latin mythology and ancient or pre-Romantic authors.

This exhibition catalogue brings together a wide range of works on paper (drawings, collages, prints) produced between 1973 and 1977, a pivotal period in the American artist's work. It highlights Twombly's characteristic style, which seems to defy time and history, uniting in a single gesture the most archaic forms with those of modernity.
