After Line, Before Form

@ Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art

2320 W Chicago Ave, Chicago, IL 60622

Opening Tuesday, December 9th, from 12PM - 3PM

On view through Sunday, March 1st

After Line, Before Form explores the moment when a
point becomes a line, and a line transforms into a
shape, tracing the liminal spaces between them and the
threshold where line gives rise to form—where
movement and perception bring form into being.
Featuring works by artists from Ukraine, the Ukrainian
diaspora, and other international contexts, the
exhibition considers geometry as both a physical
structure and an imaginative order. Across painting,
print, and sculpture, the exhibition reflects on how line
and form engage one another to create depth, rhythm
and meaning—revealing abstraction as an intuitive
dialogue between imagination and reality. Each artist
interprets line and form in distinct ways, inviting viewers
to encounter the varied possibilities of the liminal space
and the shifting boundaries that separate—and
connect—line and shape.
