Artforum has named Venus Over Manhattan’s upcoming exhibition Richard Mayhew: Watercolor a “Must See.” On November 7, Venus will open the first exhibition in over two decades dedicated exclusively to the artist’s remarkable work in watercolor, and the first presentation of Mayhew’s work since his passing in September at the age of 100.
Opening November 7, the exhibition showcases Mayhew’s enduring vision across a notoriously challenging medium. Richard Mayhew: Watercolor will remain on view at 39 Great Jones Street through Saturday, January 18, 2025.
