After the success of the exhibition The American Dream: Pop to the Present in the spring of 2017 in London, the
Fondation Custodia, the Terra Foundation for American Art and the British Museum are collaborating in summer 2018 to present a selection of American prints from the British Museum’s important graphic collection. Some 90 works from the 1960s to the present provide the opportunity to trace the history of American printmaking during the second half of the twentieth century. Key prints include masterpieces by
Jim Dine,
Jasper Johns,
Robert Rauschenberg,
Ed Ruscha,
Kiki Smith,
Kara Walker and
Andy Warhol, as well as by artists who are less well-known in Europe.
