The Gallery at the Whitney is pleased to present That Commitment to Discovery, an exhibition of oils, watercolors, and charcoal drawings by renowned painter and teacher Richard Lytle. An explorer of both the natural world and the imagination, Lytle makes his discoveries through close observation, experimental juxtaposition, and creative reverie. His work is characterized by a mastery of line and color and presents a vision that calls for both finesse and boldness in its execution. With Lytle’s interest in natural forms, processes of transformation, visual enigma, and pictorial vitality, That Commitment to Discovery is also the perfect visual complement to the many Darwin-related exhibitions and talks featured at Yale this spring.
