Alice Baber: Sacred spaces presents a landmark selling exhibition dedicated to one of the most distinctive voices of postwar American abstraction. Spanning more than two decades of the artist’s career, the exhibition brings together nearly thirty works that illuminates Alice Baber’s (1928–1982) evolution from early gestural experimentation to the radiant, immersive compositions of her later years.

Baber’s paintings transform color into structure and sensation. Through layered transparencies and fluid movement, she conceived the canvas as a site of energy and contemplation — what she described as a “sacred space.” Her work moves between Abstract Expressionism and Color Field painting while maintaining a deeply personal visual language centered on light, harmony, and emotional presence.

Though represented in major museum collections worldwide, Baber’s achievement has only recently begun to receive sustained scholarly and market recognition. Coinciding with Gail Levin’s authoritative new biography Alice Baber: An artist’s triumph over tragedy and concurrent institutional presentations, this exhibition marks a pivotal moment in the reassessment of Baber’s legacy, offering a rare opportunity to engage with works spanning the full breadth of her artistic vision.
