Emily Furr “Delirious New York” @ Sargent’s Daughters, NYC

Sargent’s Daughters is pleased to present Emily Furr’s fifth solo exhibition with the gallery: Delirious New York.  Across paintings, drawings, and collages, this new body of work places Furr’s precise imagery in dialogue with the iconic built environment of New York City. Rem Koolhaas’ seminal work of the same title is a sprawling analysis of the architecture and planning of Manhattan and a manifesto on 20th century urbanism. Furr’s new work critically engages with the history and mythos of the city she calls home, reinterpreting its signifiers through surreal and playful compositions.
