Born in Montreal, Dorothea Rockburne studied at the École des beaux-arts in Montreal and at the Museum’s School of Art and Design. She pursued her studies at Black Mountain College in North Carolina with Franz Kline, Jack Tworkov and Esteban Vicente. She studied dance with Merce Cunningham, music with John Cage and even took courses with the mathematician Max Dehn. Works by this international artist are in prestigious American collections, including the MET and the MoMA. This retrospective featuring fifty of her works will reveal the development of a Montreal artist’s abstraction abroad.
