Barbara and Steven Grossman Gallery
Organized in response to Sol LeWitt's 1971 Wall Drawing #118, which was conceived and installed at SMFA that year, "Something Along Those Lines," is a dynamic group exhibition featuring nine modern and contemporary artists who blend conceptual, sculptural and performative engagements with the formal elements of drawing: Adel Abdessemed, Ann Carlson + Mary Ellen Strom, Carlos Cruz-Diez, Gego, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, LeWitt, Bruce Nauman, Fred Sandback and Lawrence Weiner.

"This project was designed to be a narrative, experienced in four components, which can be understood in relation to each other. The components are "Ground Cover" a fabric sculpture that refers to a lava field, "Shade Cloth", a fabric cloud, "Water Feature" a torrent of 20,000 white rayon tassels pouring down from the ceiling above, and "Dynamo" a stainless steel sphere lit from within and casting its red/ orange glow on the surrounding walls." –Lee Boroson
