Summary

• Description from the Elvehjem bulletin/annual report 1987–88: "Bravo's consummate skill in depiction provided Elvehjem patrons with the experience of witnessing the artist's transformation of the visual world onto canvas and paper where masking tape and electrical cords take their place alongside more traditional elements of still life. Guest Curator Professor Edward Sullivan of New York University organized this powerful show for the Elvehjem... [The exhibition] brought together sixty-five paintings, drawings and pastels done from 1953 to 1987." [p. 93]
