# 6 FOR HOLLY…

Marieluise Hessel acquired the works from the legendary SoHo art dealer Holly Solomon. Famously depicted by Andy Warhol in the 1960s, Solomon became one of the most idiosyncratic and independently minded art dealers of the postwar era. Having worked with artists as distinctive as Gordon Matta-Clark, William Wegman, Robert Wilson collaborator Christopher Knowles, and Sigmar Polke, amongst many others, Solomon came to champion—towards the late 1970s and early 1980s—an eclectic, even eccentric, group of artists whose work fearlessly explored the then-taboo subject of art’s relationship with decoration. Seemingly out of synch with the dominant socially and politically charged practices of the era, this work—some of which was aligned under the term Pattern and Decoration—has deftly eluded assimilation into the art-historical canon, affording the work an unusual degree of liberty for revaluation and potential recuperation.
