Wopo Holup: Endless Places, Present
February 1 – May 28, 2018
@ BMoCA
This posthumous exhibition explored the vast cartographies illustrated by Holup over the last fifteen years. Many of these drawings were created in her studio in Lyons, Colorado. Although the titles may be familiar or feature well-known places, Holup selectively transcribed her experience of these majestic landscapes into richly layered and selectively sparse drawings. She obscured and abstracted the known through a selected aerial perspective. Visitors are invited to experience these landscapes, not from conventional expectations, but through Holup’s meticulous gestures on vellum. Guest curated by Mandy Vink.
