This exhibition explores contemporary artists’ use of unusual mark-making devices, including blood, smoke, Kool-Aid, coffee, scrap metal, vegetable juice, pins, dryer lint, and more, to create drawings and prints.

In three sculptures from the Hammer Contemporary Collection, three artists of the same generation emphasize the experience of perception, privilege the spectator’s interpretation, and insist that meaning remain open-ended.

Inspired by the life and legacy of jazz musician, devotional leader, and mother Alice Coltrane, this exhibition presents works by contemporary American artists paired with ephemera from Coltrane’s personal archive.
