Kirsten Marples, Curatorial Associate, Menil Drawing Institute, speaks about the selection of permanent collection images that are the subject of the Menil’s exhibition Out of Thin Air: Emerging Forms. Not fully resolved or strictly defined, the works in this exhibition are open, suggestive images that seem as though they are still in the process of becoming.
