    Mildred Thompson, Music of the Spheres: Mars, 1996

    “Mildred Thompson: Frequencies” is the most comprehensive solo museum exhibition to date for American artist Mildred Thompson. Bringing together approximately fifty works from 1959 to 1999, the exhibition surveys Thompson’s multifaceted practice, featuring paintings, sculptures, etchings, drawings, assemblages, and musical compositions. Throughout her peripatetic career, Thompson worked across media and disciplines, drawing from both scientific research and a poetic pursuit of abstraction to explore the limits of perception. Often featuring radiating swirls of color and gesture, her diverse bodies of work seek to visualize extremes of scale—from the human body and built environments to microscopic particles and the vastness of the cosmos.
