Current Show
The Fran Goldman Collection
It is Fran’s wish these delightful drawings, dating from the 1980s through the 1990s, find new loving homes. These witty vintage pastels invite the viewer into a provocative world of fantasy where the formal meets the primal and the boundaries between human and not-human are more nuanced than we may believe.
