A new exhibition titled “Drop, Cloth,” co-curated by Glenn Adamson and Severin Delfs, explores how contemporary artists have reimagined drapery over the past 50 years. The show features 30 works by 25 artists, spanning two Chelsea galleries—Hollis Taggart (through January 10, 2026) and Susan Inglett Gallery (through January 30, 2026). Works range from Sam Gilliam’s seminal *Little Dude* (circa 1972) to recent pieces by Kennedy Yanko, Jenny Morgan, and Chellis Baird, alongside historical pieces by Nina Yankowitz, Lynda Benglis, and Rosemary Mayer. The exhibition traces a lineage of drapery as both subject and material, including shaped canvas, paint skin, ceramic, metal, embroidery, and weaving.
